Quark sponsors Digital Magazine Awards 2011

Quark has announced that it is sponsoring the Digital Magazine Awards 2011; an international accolade showcasing the best magazines, standout advertisements and most influential people from the digital publishing industry.

Last year’s winners include Sky Magazine Live, Vodafone CLEAR and KLM iFly Magazine with participants from all over the world.

Quark recently launched QuarkXPress 9, the latest major version of the page-layout and graphic design software that puts designers in control of publishing to print, Web, interactive Flash (SWF), and now digital media including digital magazines.

Gavin Drake (pictured), Quark’s Vice President of Marketing said: “Quark supported the inaugural Digital Magazine Awards and we are delighted to be able to continue our support for this initiative again this year. Much has changed in just 12 months with millions of tablet devices now flooding the marketplace and expanding the opportunities for digital magazine publishers. We look forward to the Digital Magazine Awards 2011 driving further innovation and rewarding the very best in this fast evolving industry.”

Bruce Hudson, Digital Magazine Awards Chairman said: “We’re delighted after the success of last year’s awards that Quark has renewed their Platinum Sponsorship. With last year’s awards receiving entries from 26 countries and expected to increases this year, it’s fantastic to have this global pioneer, as our main sponsor.”

The Digital Magazine Awards 2011 open for entry on 1st June 2011.

Closing date for entry is 1st September 2011.
