Gerety and The Industry Club Introduce In-house Agency Of The Year Award
The Industry Club is continuing its partnership with the Gerety Awards in 2025, presenting the prestigious In-House Agency of the Year award. This collaboration underscores our shared commitment to recognising the outstanding creativity and innovation within in-house agencies, which are redefining the boundaries of advertising and brand storytelling.
As part of our dedication to supporting in-house teams, The Industry Club recently launched the first-ever UK In-House Talent & Salary Survey in collaboration with The In-House Agency Leaders Club (IHALC) and its members. This initiative has provided invaluable insights into the evolving role of in-house agencies and reinforced the importance of celebrating their creative excellence.
Spotlighting Exceptional Talent
The In-House Agency of the Year award will honour the highest-scoring agency based on points accumulated across all entries for shortlist, bronze, silver, gold, and grand prix categories. The scoring system is as follows:
- Grand Prix: 12 points
- Gold: eight points
- Silver: four points
- Bronze: two points
- Shortlist: one point
Melissa Smith, founder and managing director of The Industry Club, expressed her enthusiasm for this initiative, “In-house agencies continue to push the boundaries of creativity while navigating the unique challenges of operating within a brand. The In-House Agency of the Year award is a well-deserved recognition of their innovation, impact, and growing influence in the industry. We are proud to partner with Gerety once again to shine a spotlight on the exceptional talent within these teams and celebrate their contributions to the creative landscape.”
A Global Celebration of Creativity
This year’s Gerety Awards jury features a record-breaking 245 judges from 50 countries, ensuring that entries are evaluated from diverse perspectives. The sole judging criteria remain originality of the idea and creativity in execution.
The standard deadline for entries is Friday, April 11th, although at the time of writing extensions are available, contact Gerety to find out more. We encourage all in-house agencies to submit their work and join us in celebrating their contributions to shaping the future of advertising.
