Please see the following descriptions for more information on each category.
The European Content Awards categories are open to all industries and agencies, provided they are creating work with a content focus. The judges will review each submission and provide their score based on the quality of the content.
For example, PR agencies can enter their content campaigns into the European Content Awards, but these submissions will be judged on the quality of the content, rather than the quality of the PR strategy.
Please see the following descriptions for more information on each category.
