After the 2022 jury was revealed last week, the Media Innovation Awards have announced the media and marketing experts who will determine a shortlist of the strongest media-led work in Canada.

The Media Innovation Awards recognize the most impactful campaigns driven by clever and innovative media strategies and partnerships. The winners will be presented at a live gala in Toronto planned for Dec. 2, 2022.

Due to the volume of entries the MIAs receives, the shortlist jury – made up of senior staff and execs from media agencies, brands and other sectors of the marketing industry – will help narrow down the cases.

The list will then be presented to a live jury co-chaired by Helen Galanis, CEO at Initiative, and Andrea Danovich, AVP marketing at Interac, who will award the best work of 2022.

The final deadline for the Media Innovation Awards submissions is Aug. 15. For more information about the program, including categories and entry criteria, please visit the MIAs website.
