The London International Awards (LIA) has proudly announced the winners and finalists in four major categories: Digital, Use of Social Media & Influencers, Production & Post-Production, and Music Video.

Terry Savage, Chairperson of LIA, expressed his satisfaction with the judging process, noting that jurors consistently commented on the high caliber of the entries this year. “The quality of the work was of a very high standard,” Savage said. He also acknowledged that the experience and expertise of the jurors were key in delivering the best results, adding, “Every judge sees every piece of work in the category they are judging,” which helped maintain fairness and consistency throughout the process.
