Celebrating Communication Excellence
Now accepting entries
For more than 35 years, the International Association of Business Communicators Toronto (IABC/Toronto) has celebrated professionals for their talent and creative brilliance through the prestigious OVATION Awards program.
The program offers award categories relevant to corporate communications, public relations, marketing professionals, event planners, writers, graphics designers, videographers and photographers.
The year 2020 changed everything. Every year typically has a few defining moments, but 2020 was very different. There were world-changing developments at every turn, political shifts, waves of social change and a global pandemic.
