IoIC Awards 2025: shortlist announced

We are delighted to announce the shortlist for the IoIC Awards 2025

09 Jul 2025

It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for: the shortlist for the 2025 IoIC Awards has been announced!

With close to 300 entries, the Judges commented that they were ‘all really strong this year - there’s some truly impressive internal communication work happening out there, from some incredibly skilled individuals.’ All shortlisted entrants will receive an Award of Excellence and are in the running to take the top spot in their class* when the winners are announced at the Awards Dinner. The top scoring entry will also be announced as the Grand Prix Award.

Join us on Thursday 18 September for an exclusive evening at the renowned Hurlingham Club, where tradition meets distinction. Set against the backdrop of one of London’s most exclusive venues, we will mark the 70th year of the Awards with inspiration and celebration. As a private members' club, the Hurlingham is not typically open to the public. Attending the dinner offers a rare opportunity to experience its historic charm and exclusivity - making the evening even more special.

Increasingly we have people ask us to share entries and details of why they were shortlisted or, indeed, why they won. This can be tricky as very often the information shared in an entry is confidential. So, once again this year we asked for an executive summary as part of each entry - you can find these at the end of each Category's shortlist.

Judges' critiques will be sent to all entrants in early October

Thank you to everyone who entered.
