The finalists for B&T’s 30 Under 30 Awards, presented by Vevo, have been revealed!
The eventual winners will be revealed at a swish awards ceremony at Sydney’s Metro Theatre on 13 March. You can grab your tickets here!
The B&T 30 Under 30 Awards is the premier event recognising the most promising young professionals in the advertising, marketing and media industries. There are 10 categories, plus the People’s Choice Award and the coveted Grand Prix, won last year by Pinterest’s Kelly Wu.
Yesterday, it was revealed that there had been some under-handed behaviour in the voting for the People’s Choice Award, with some entrants seeming to be employing bots to bump their numbers up. You can read all about the scandal here.
But without any further ado, here are your finalists for B&T’s 30 Under 30 Awards, presented by Vevo!
