ILMC Managing Director Greg Parmley said: “Congratulations to all of the nominees and winners at this year’s Arthur Awards. Congratulations in particular to this year’s Bottle recipient, and live business icon, Marsha Vlasic!”
The Arthur Awards have been handed out during ILMC for more than 25 years. The shortlist of nominees in each category is decided by a committee of 150 industry professionals. Winners are then decided by a combination of an open vote of all ILMC members, IQ Magazine readers, and a closed panel of judges made up of senior industry figures.
