We want to make 2024 the biggest year yet for the CIHT Awards
After a record breaking year in 2023 we hope to be even bigger and better in 2024. With almost 60 per cent growth in entries since 2019 it is clear the sector recognises the importance of entering the CIHT Awards and how it is unique in the value it offers to every entrant.
We spoke to Bruce Connal, CIHT Marketing and Communications Manager, who is in charge of the entry process and asked him what he thought were the reasons for the award's rapid growth;
I think there are multiple factors that have accelerated the growth of the CIHT awards.
Firstly, I think there is widespread recognition that we genuinely want to celebrate the great work of the sector and the way it benefits the public. We make our awards stand out and differentiate ourselves from the competition by enhancing the value of entering and in having a rigorous judging process. We do not put any obstacles in the way – entry is free and you do not have to be a CIHT member to enter or work for a CIHT partner organisation – as we want to see the work your team and organisation has done. We then promote your work to tens of thousands of professionals in our network including highways and transportation’s key budget holders and decision-makers.
Secondly, every entry is read not only by the judges but by members of the CIHT editorial , policy and event teams. Plus, every shortlisted entry will be read by a member of the senior management team. Therefore, every entry is not only considered for the awards but for future content, events, roundtables, white papers and other incredible PR opportunities. Every entry, whatever the level of success, will be considered throughout CIHT and will potentially provide the entrant with incredible PR and thought leadership opportunities for the next twelve months and beyond.
Finally, the CIHT awards provide the opportunity for organisations to enhance their brand reputation and gain new business - as our awards are seen as a genuine sign of quality helping to attract potential clients, strategic transport bodies and investors. We have ensured that the structure of the categories gives the organisation a platform to tell their story and position themselves as leaders in the sector, which makes being shortlisted a fantastic accomplishment.
Free to enter.
