There is still time to help name and honour the next generation of industry leaders. The deadline for nominations for this year’s New Establishment has been extended to November 29 to give brand, media and agency nominators more time to weigh in.

The New Establishment recognizes exceptional junior- and mid-level professionals in the Canadian communications industry who are going above and beyond their job descriptions.

If you’re rubbing elbows with someone in your workplace – or even outside of your team – who is pioneering new initiatives to better serve clients or push boundaries to deliver top-tier ideas, we want to hear about them. (If that description fits you, we’re totally fine if you want to nominate yourself, too.)

There’s no age limit or position requirements for nominations. Be prepared to tell us how your nominee has made an impact and include clearly defined accomplishments they have made by way of campaign results, new business practices, innovative models, etc. We need specifics when you’re claiming someone is punching above their weight class.

Following the submission period, the nominees will be reviewed by our editorial team.

One winner from each category will be selected and announced at the 2025 AToMiC Awards, and featured online at strategyonline.ca.
