New Media Broad Awards: Recognizing outstanding achievements in online communication

New Media is increasingly playing a key
role in the messaging process of key
players in business, government and at
even private levels. What used to be an
appurtenance is now a necessity for
brands that care about how they are
perceived. While the use of these tools
and forms of communication have
become the norm for the most
forward-looking organizations, it has
become crucial to celebrate those who
are not only doing it well but doing it
differently without losing their brand
essence.

We believe that recognizing excellence
in the use of new media and digital
communications today will help raise
the ante in the industry for the future.
We will be looking forward to
celebrating the various entries into the
30 award categories of Broad Awards
but most importantly, we will be
looking forward to celebrating our
people, our culture and our advances in
the art of corporate, public and private
communication on new media and
digital communications.

The Nigerian Digital Communication and
Entertainment company, iBroad Group
is proud to announce the launch of its
award website http://ibroadgroup.com/

serveas a unique, user-friendly portal
that’d be a digital desk for Broad
Awards for New Media applicants. It

Over the years, the field of professional
communication has experienced a
significant change through new media
communication, and this has become
one of the fastest growing, innovative
communication sub-sector for
companies, institutions and
organizations. In order to advance
excellence in the practice and
deployment of New Media, to
encourage an active exchange among
practitioners, iBroad Group has
launched an Africa-wide competition for
excellence in online communication and
social media on a practical level through
the Broad Awards for New Media. It
will be a fair, transparent and
independent competition, with a high-

practitioners who will rate superior
online strategies, campaigns and social
media tools from across Africa.

Furthermore, the academia will for once

Masters’ thesis dealing with online
communication.
To thrill consumers or employees
requires a great deal of energy as well

of new media continues to grow,
however mobile and viral
communication, online events and
competitions are becoming increasingly

for New Media has utilized this
experience to create all the categories
to meet up with the expectations of the
general public, New Media enthusiasts
and those with specific interests in the
"war for talents" in this arena. We have
implemented specific categories that
