SC Awards 2019 Europe | SC Magazine (UK) - SC Media (US) | 24 January 2019 | London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square, Grosvenor Square, Mayfair, London W1K 6JP, UK

Our independent judges carefully consider each entrant against a range of criteria – but especially customer satisfaction – to determine who exemplifies best practice and will be this year’s winners. Plus we pick individuals to honour who embody those same attributes.

Awards are about winners and praising success. This includes the success of every finalist who will have demonstrated that they are at the top of their game, each adding to our ability to defeat our adversaries, and that truly is worth celebrating.
