They lead with purpose. They challenge the status quo. They bring courage, creativity and conviction to every boardroom, briefing and brainstorm. They are the super women of media, and today, we celebrate them.
B&T’s Women in Media Power List Long List for 2025 is here! For twelve years, we’ve been spotlighting the women shaping the future of advertising, marketing, media, tech and communications across Australia and New Zealand, and 2025 is no different.
At the heart of B&T’s Women in Media Awards, proudly presented by Are Media, the Power List honours those with exceptional influence, women who don’t just excel in their professional fields but use their platform to elevate others as mentors, champions and changemakers.
The Long List is our first look at the powerhouse talents making media stronger, smarter and more human. These women don’t just hold power, they redefine it. From bold founders to behind-the-scenes heroes, this list is packed with visionaries, agitators and quiet achievers whose impact ripples across the industry.
This is a long list with the aim of capturing all the incredible women who make a lasting contribution to this insdustry. The final Power List and award winners will be revealed at the 2025 Women in Media Awards on Friday, 29 August at the White Bay Cruise Terminal in Sydney.
Enter B&T’s Women In Media Awards, presented by Are Media, now!
