Media Awards

Openside Media Awards Recognise the Best in Accounting Journalism in 2009

Entries are now welcomed for the inaugural Openside Accounting Journalism Awards.

This competition, which has been established to recognise outstanding published work covering the accounting profession, is open to journalists who published original reports or commentary over the past 12 months on accounting-related issues.

The Award initiative recognises and supports the crucial role of the media in raising awareness of accounting issues during an unusually challenging business year.

Entries will show excellence in both command of the subject and the ability to communicate about it in a superior style.

Cash prizes will be awarded for the best article and the best column or analytical piece about the accounting industry, as evaluated by a panel of industry judges whose decision will be announced on April 30, 2010.

All entries must be received by no later than March 1, 2010.
