ABOUT THE AWARDS

The Future is Female Awards are the anchor of Advertising Week’s globally celebrated Future is Female Program recognizing outstanding, trailblazing women and allies in our industry. After debuting in New York in 2019, the awards are entering their sixth year at AWEurope, eighth year at AWNewYork, and entering our third at AWLATAM. Previous editions have also taken place at AWAfrica, AWAsia, and AWAPAC.

Honorees are selected based on a combination of proven achievements, demonstrated ability to effect organizational change, commitment to external impact, ability to mentor others, and professional endorsements. We believe that leadership comes in many forms, so our criteria is about demonstrating it at any level.
