News' PR People Awards competition is your opportunity to showcase the top talent, the innovators and passionate professionals who day in and day out are making communications matter in the marketplace. The winners of this annual program set the benchmark for PR and underscore the outstanding PR achievements made in the past year. Nominate your colleagues, or self-nominate; either way, we want to meet the best in PR and introduce them to the thousands of readers of PR News and their key stakeholders. Multiple entries from an agency, corporation or association are accepted.

The winners of the PR People Awards will be profiled in the PR News Special Issue, online and at an awards luncheon on December 5 in Washington, D.C.
