Shortlisted for five CIPR PRide awards, including Outstanding Small Consultancy

We are tremendously proud that The View has once again been recognised by our industry peers as being one of the best of the best in the PR industry.

At the tender age of two and a half, we have been shortlisted for Outstanding Small Consultancy category in the CIPR (Chartered Institute of Marketing) Excellence Awards 2012, one of just six agencies nationwide.

It took into account our work for Pernod Ricard UK, Berkeley Group, TeamSport and others, plus all-round excellence in business and management standards.

Companies and individuals for the awards have been drawn from 700 entries, with winners announced at the Excellence Awards black tie dinner at the Park Lane Hilton on 28 May. The awards dinner, now in its 27th year, is the most prestigious annual celebration of the public relations profession with up to 900 guests attending from across the industry.

Jane Wilson, CEO of the CIPR, said on Friday: “To make the CIPR Excellence Awards shortlist is a statement of achievement for any organisation. The sheer number of high quality entries received this year, especially when things are still pretty tough out there economically, is testament to a thriving industry. There really is no greater recognition of professionalism, creativity and hard work than to reach the final stages of the Excellence Awards.”

This shortlisting follows hot on the heels of our Outstanding Small Consultancy gold award (and string of other accolades – see news reported earlier) at the CIPR PRide awards (SE) in Brighton last November.
