BCP becomes more digital
The 2013 BCP will kick off on January 7, 2013. Companies and corporate publishing service providers can then once again submit their publications for consideration in the BCP Best of Corporate Publishing competition.
Not only has the jury been enlarged, but the digital categories have also been adapted. Nine BCP Awards will be presented in this area alone. This was announced by the Forum Corporate Publishing in a press release from Freiga.
The jury honors CP media in 28 different categories, including the best B2B and B2C customer magazines as well as employee publications and corporate books. The most outstanding reportage is sought in the "CP Excellence" category, and the most effective and efficient CP medium is honored with the "CP Impact" award. In addition, four special prizes will be awarded: Steinbeis Papier honors publications with a high sustainability factor with the "Green Publishing" award and the Laserline printing company from Berlin honors CP media with outstanding print finishing and print processing with the "Print & Innovation" special prize. Special prizes will also be awarded for the "Cover of the Year" and for international communication concepts.
"We are looking forward to the upcoming BCP and the many different submissions. We know from experience that the quality of the media is constantly increasing, because the demands that CP has to meet are rising year on year. It will not be easy for the jury at the BCP 2013 to determine the best of the best," says Michael Höflich, Managing Director of Forum Corporate Publishing.
More interaction through social media
The organizer of the competition, Forum Corporate Publishing, is also expanding its communication platforms with the BCP 2013. Via Twitter and Facebook, those interested in CP can find out about trends and developments, follow current discussions and keep up to date with the BCP competition and congress. With the eleventh BCP, the website will also have a new look.
The application phase lasts until February 1, 2013 and company reports can be submitted until April 4. Following the international congress on June 19 in Hamburg, the cubes will be awarded at the "Schmidts Tivoli" cabaret theater.
