LIA (formerly known as London International Advertising Awards) is a worldwide Award annually honouring legends, pioneers, and embodiments of excellence in Advertising, Digital, Production, Design, Music & Sound and Technology. It was the first truly international award of its kind to acknowledge all media from all over the world to be judged by a diverse global jury. In 2004, the word “Advertising” was removed from the competition’s name to reflect the fact that it observes more than just “advertising” in an ever-changing industry. Barbara Levy, Founder of LIA, has also been the Awards President since its inception in 1986.
The Awards began by honouring advertising in the realms of Cinema, Television, Print, and Radio internationally. LIA now honours 16 unique media types: Billboard, Branded Entertainment, Design, Digital, Integration, Music & Sound, Music Video, Non-Traditional, Package Design, Poster, Print, Production & Post-Production, Radio & Audio, The NEW, TV/Cinema/Online Film and Verbal Identity.
Grand LIA winners will get a 1-year 15-users instant access to Coloribus Advertising Archive
