Note from the Editor


It may be a little clichéd to say there has never been a more important time to work in internal comms, but it is certainly fair to say that the work teams do really can make a measurable difference to organisations and the staff that work for them.

We’re living through uncertain times. Geopolitical volatility, economic uncertainty and the impact of AI are having a huge impact on businesses, while internal comms teams are also grappling with the fact that, in an age of social media, internal messages can be shared externally within seconds.

That’s why In.Comms is launching this new set of awards. We want to recognise the impact that internal comms teams are having in today’s businesses and the software that enables them to do such amazing work.

I can’t wait to see the entries for this year’s awards.
