Swiss Award Corporate Communications: Partnership with university
Swiss Award Corporate Communications, the Swiss prize for corporate communications receives support. The ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences is now the so-called knowledge partner in the emerging communications sector.
Swiss Award Corporate Communications will position itself even better in the future with partners such as the IAM Institute for Applied Media Science at ZHAW. The industry association pr suisse had already decided in 2015 to support the quality brand for Swiss corporate communications. For three years now, the president of the independent expert jury, Prof. Dr. Peter Stücheli-Herlach, has also come from this university.
With the new partnership, the basis of the only Swiss award for networked and high-performance corporate communications can be further strengthened, after the professional association pr suisse has already been involved as an exclusive industry partner since 2015.
The partnership with the university ensures, among other things, that students can be familiarized with the highest quality standards for corporate communications.
The Award
The Swiss Award Corporate Communications has been honoring outstanding projects in integrated corporate communications in Switzerland since 2005. This is done on the basis of simple but relevant criteria by an independent and honorary jury of experts. "We want a discussion about quality in corporate communications. Well-known colleagues are committed to this in the jury: competent, critical and well informed," says jury president Prof. Dr. Peter Stücheli-Herlach, who also serves on the organizing committee together with pr suisse president Peter Eberhard.
The Award presents nomination and main prizes at an annual public event. The Award is registered as a trademark with the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property. Thanks to the Institute's membership in the Global Alliance, nominated projects also have the exclusive opportunity to participate in the international Global Alliance COMM PRIX Award.
The exclusive industry partner since 2015 has been the Swiss professional association pr suisse. Projects for this year's award can still be submitted until July 25. The award ceremony will take place on Thursday, September 7, 2017, from 17.30h at the Zurich club escherwyss.
