IMM Institute revamps awards and conference
A revamped experience, including both the prestigious IMM Institute Excellence Awards Dinner and an illuminating speaker session, will now be held next March.
The decision to postpone the Conference and Awards planned for 17 October wasn’t taken lightly and was informed by various factors, including that there are many talented marketing and supply chain individuals and teams who may not yet have completed showcase-worthy projects by the initial end date for nominations. By extending the nomination period to cover the full 2024 cycle, we aim to provide a broader window for participants to submit their accomplishments, ensuring that all worthy contributions are considered and celebrated.
Our gala Awards Dinner, which promises to be an informative and glamourous evening, has been postponed to March, with top marketers and supply chain professionals set to be honoured at the event, with an extended deadline for award nominations to 15 January.
At the banquet, we will be handing out our coveted IMM Institute Excellence Awards in ten categories, for which we have so far received 31 nominations, each of which is being carefully considered and is in the running for the 2024 Awards. By extending the closing date for nominations, we hope to encourage more people to put forward marketing and supply chain champions.
We will also host keynote speakers from industry who will address the planned 2024 IMM Institute Conference topics centred around the theme “Fusion of Functions: Marketing and Supply Chain – Partnership for People, Prosperity and the Planet”.
Of particular importance at the Awards Dinner are the two Lifetime Achievement Awards in Marketing and Supply Chain respectively, which will be bestowed alongside these other accolades:
– Marketer of the Year
– Emerging Marketer of the Year
– Marketing Student of the Year
– Corporate Marketing Team of the Year
– Supply Chain Professional of the Year
– Supply Chain Student of the Year
– Corporate Supply Chain Team of the Year
– Entrepreneur of the Year
‘It’s going to be a thought-provoking and exciting evening, and we look forward to seeing all of you there,’ said Irene Gregory, CEO of the Institute of Marketing Manager (IMM) South Africa.
