The Content Marketing Association (CMA), the industry body for the content marketing industry, has announced that entries are now open for its fifth annual International Content Marketing Awards.

Taking place on 26th November 2014 at The Roundhouse, London, The International Content Marketing Awards 2014 is the biggest night in the content marketing calendar, says the CMA. They celebrate excellence in content marketing with agencies from across the globe, providing the industry with a stunning showcase of talent, creativity and innovation, and giving brand marketers the world over insight into content that continuously surpasses client expectation.

Last year’s awards attracted over 450 entries from 15 different territories making it one of the world’s biggest awards and demonstrating the global scale of the content marketing industry. Winners included Northstar, who took home the Grand Prix for their work on Audi Magazine; Cedar, for the British Airways High Life publication and Sunday for their use of video content for Lloyd’s of London.

Clare Hill, Managing Director at the Content Marketing Association, said: “The past year has seen remarkable growth of the content marketing discipline, with £4 billion now spent annually on owned media in the UK. Our awards offer an opportunity to recognise all the great work and achievements from across the whole industry in 2014.
