Media Voices are delighted to reveal the shortlist for the third year of the Publisher Newsletter Awards. From hundreds of entries, this shortlist of 150+ represents the very best in publisher newsletters and we are excited to be promoting and celebrating such fantastic work. Being on the shortlist is a huge achievement as we had some incredibly oversubscribed categories and very strong submissions in what has been an exceptional year for entries.
The winning newsletters will be decided by a line-up of nearly 40 judges from around the world, many of whom have been judging the Awards since their inception in 2023. The winners will be revealed in an in-person celebration in London on 10th June 2025.
We’re excited to be bringing the Publisher Newsletter Summit back, running in parallel alongside the inaugural Publisher Print Summit on Tuesday 10th June before the Newsletter Awards. The Publisher Podcast Summit and Awards will be held the following day, alongside our first ever Publisher App Summit.
See the Summits website for our draft agenda and tickets – currently on Early Bird offer.
Come hear from the best and brightest in the industry, share your own expertise – and dip into the print sessions whenever you like.
