AiMCO Awards live event now on Feb 24, 2022
AiMCO has announced that in light of the current Covid restrictions in Sydney they have made the difficult decision to change the date for the AiMCO Awards live event shifting it to Thursday February 24, 2022.
The new timing means that the Australian influencer marketing community can celebrate the start of a new business year in 2022 with the AiMCO Awards live event. This decision also means entrants have more time to enter, and creative that has appeared up to the end of September 2021 will now be accepted.
The new dates are:
AiMCO Awards Winners Celebration will now take place February 24, 2022
Awards Short List will be announced early December 2021
Entries will now close October 15th 2021
Creative work submitted can have appeared between July 1st 2020 up to September 30th 2021 (previously it needed to appear prior June 30th 2021)
AiMCO is calling on agencies, brands, influencer platforms, creators and all working in the influencer marketing ecosystem to continue to submit their best influencer marketing work into the Awards.
