Dedicated to propelling digital ingenuity, SLIM DIGIS 2.3 is proud to continue introducing novel awards categories that reflect the dynamic trends shaping the digital landscape.
Notable among the introductions in this edition is the “Creator/Influencer Digital Marketing” category.
This special awards category acknowledges the wide use of consumer-generated content and influencer partnerships to elevate brand engagement, amplify sales, and generate excitement around products or services.
Entries must articulate the intricate web of engagement metrics, social reach and the creative utilization of creator or influencer content, to demonstrate their decisive impact on campaign performance.
“Digital marketing has emerged to be the most critical marketing tool in today’s context, in the rise of the digital economy.
As the national body for marketing, SLIM is putting a constant effort to elevate the skills and the capabilities of the digital marketing fraternity, by creating a platform to showcase their masterpieces that paved ground breaking results for the brands and the businesses.
This year too, we anticipate a multitude of entries for a “nail biting” competition in order to become monarchs of digital marketing mastery in the country” said Gayan Perera, VP Events at SLIM.
Emphasizing this year’s focus of the competition, Arosha Perera – Head of Jury for SLIM DIGIS 2.3 said,
“DIGIS is now firmly established as THE competitive arena for professional digital marketers.
This is an awards program that continuously improves and evolves, keeping pace with advances in digital marketing in Sri Lanka.
Last year we improved the width in categories.
This year, we focus on depth of competition, raising the quality and discipline of case articulation to better enable the best work to shine.
We continue to encourage and inspire digital media anchored thinking, ideas, execution and impact that are world class.”
A crucial and highly progressive change to SLIM DIGIS 2.3, over previous years, will be the introduction of a new standardized entry form and submission criteria, which is designed to elevate the competition, by enabling high-quality, highly-competitive case articulation to correlate with scoring criteria.
This move will bring SLIM DIGIS entries in line with the most demanding global competitions.
