The Creative Floor Healthcare Awards 2016 launches today. It will continue to be the only health and wellness award show in the world to donate a percentage of profits to help greater diversity and help untapped talent break into the healthcare communications industry.
Shaheed Peera, Founder said: “Two years ago we set out to redefine the way healthcare award shows are run. We created a model that not only inspires but one that helps increase diversity and untapped talent break into one of the best creative industries in the world. Our reputation has helped attract the hottest creative judges in the world right now. Getting endorsed by sponsors such as Lürzer’s Archive is a testament to the standard required to win one of our awards. I’d like to wish everyone entering this year the best of luck. It’s going to be a fantastic award show.”
Kate Brown, U.K. General Manager, Lürzer’s Archive said: “It’s amazing to see the healthcare industry having such a great platform for recognition. With the Talent Fund helping to progress untapped talent is the icing on the cake! Lürzer’s Archive is happy to be part of such a wonderful initiative.”
