The Loyalty Awards 2015 – Is your company one of the finalists listed here?

Finalists 2015 announced! Massive increase in entries reflects vibrant loyalty business

A fantastic 30% increase in entries for The Loyalty Awards 2015 @loyaltyawards for the EMEA region has resulted in some tough decisions for the shortlisting judges who had to prune the numbers down for the final day of judgement.

Entries this year came from an even wider range of businesses, with mobile schemes well represented. They have come from virtually every country in the EMEA region.

Particularly high numbers were entered into the Best Loyalty Programme Marketing Campaign of the Year, the new category Best Use of Gamification to Enhance Loyalty, Best Short Term Loyalty Programme and Best New Loyalty Programme of the Year. This last category is significant, because it reflects the level of interest in loyalty, and illustrates the large number of new initiatives being introduced.

“The presentation of The Loyalty Awards EMEA is  firmly established as the loyalty event of the year and in 2015 we expect well in excess of the 700 loyalty professionals who attended the Gala Awards Evening last year,” predicted Annich McIntosh, joint CEO of The Loyalty Awards.

The Loyalty Awards 2015 take place on June 9th at Grosvenor House – a JW Marriott Hotel, Park Lane, London. Early booking is advised to make sure you secure a good position for your table.

There is also a welcome for new entrants and attendees each year as the event grows in stature and appeal. A significant number of entries this year are from organisations entirely new to The Loyalty Awards.

“Being a finalist for The Loyalty Awards is a massive achievement, and we congratulate those companies appearing in the following list,” said Annich McIntosh. “They have demonstrated excellence, imagination, creativity and business acumen to get this far. Congratulations to every one of them.”
