AURA members can nominate agencies in four categories and the awards mean an enormous amount to the agencies who win them because they are chosen by you - their clients.
In June the full AURA membership will be invited to vote for their favourite in each category. The winners will be announced on July 19th at AURA Awards dinner in London.
What are the categories?

This award celebrates the contribution made by the many smaller hidden gem agencies our members have been working with. To be eligible an agency needs to have fewer than 25 employees or <£1million turnover.
Commercial Acumen - Sponsored by Forsta
This award recognises an agency which has stepped up and proactively helped our members drive commercial returns from their insights
Communication - Sponsored by Verve
