The 2022 Research Live Awards open for entries

These include Agency of the Year, Innovation of the Year and Young Researcher of the Year. The latter is divided into two parts, with one for clients and the other for suppliers. There are also two Business Impact of the Year awards, one for the UK and one for global projects.

The Research Live awards judging panel will decide the winners of eight categories; finalists for Innovation of the Year will be invited to present their entry to the judges at a Dragons’ Den-style session.

There are also 14 categories in the MRS Awards, including two brand-new ones: the Applications & Impact of Data Award is designed to highlight how maximising the value from data can influence decision-making and business success. Meanwhile, the Sustainability Research Award honours case studies that demonstrate best practice in researching and understanding the actions that an organisation has taken to improve its environmental sustainability.

In addition, the Activation of Insight (MRS/AURA Award) has been updated and will be presented to the best case study from a client/agency or in-house client team demonstrating an innovative approach to insight management.

The deadline for submissions for all categories is 4 July and the winners will be announced at an MRS Awards dinner that will take place on 5 December at Old Billingsgate.
