Last checked against official sources: 26 October 2026

* Dates and timings are subject to change, please check directly with the awards organisers.

The final entry deadline for the Campaign Inspiring Women Awards 2027 is Thursday 26 November 2026. That leaves 31 days from this check to prepare a nomination recognising women and allies in marketing, advertising, media and technology. The homepage does not specify a closing time or timezone: confirm the cutoff with the organiser rather than assuming a late-evening deadline.

Budget for Your Category

The 2027 entry portal lists £539 plus VAT for the Individual Categories and £100 plus VAT for the four Rising to the Top categories. The homepage gives a general final-deadline price of £539 plus VAT, without that lower category-specific rate. Check the selected category and the amount due before paying.

Categories include CEO of the Year, Conquering Creativity and Transforming Technology. Read the full requirements in the 2027 category portal before choosing: the strongest nomination is the one whose evidence answers the actual criteria, not the most impressive-sounding title.

Confirm Eligibility Before Committing

The 2027 portal describes the programme as recognising women in the UK industries. The linked FAQ mixes UK, EMEA and global-title eligibility, and still carries a 2023 deadline and older fees. Confirm any cross-border eligibility directly with the organiser before submitting.

There is also a conflicting age-reference date for Rising to the Top: the 2027 portal says 1 December 2024, while the homepage says 1 December 2025. Ask the organiser which reference date applies to the 2027 competition before relying on either version.

Use the Remaining Month Well

Choose a category that fits the nominee's contribution, then gather evidence of what changed because of their work. For leadership, connect decisions to organisational results; for technology, explain the change introduced and its practical impact. Combine measurable outcomes with a specific example or testimonial, used with permission.

Give someone outside the project time to review the nomination against the category requirements. Agree an internal finish date that leaves room for eligibility clarification, approval and payment. For an evidence-led structure, read Crafting Winning Awards Entries.
