The annual Society of American Business Editors and Writers‘ Best in Business contest will open Jan. 4 with several new divisions and a new emphasis on non-traditional business news media.
Among the new elements debuting this year:
• A division for international publications and correspondents;
• A division for radio/broadcast TV/cable media outlets;
• An expanded division for digital media outlets;
• Two open categories to recognize the work of real estate and personal finance journalists and columnists across the country.
“So much of our industry has changed in recent years,” said competition chair Beth Hunt of American City Business Journals, who is also SABEW’s treasurer. “The changes we’ve made to the contest reflect our new realities and present a real opportunity for news organizations to show how they’re evolving to meet the needs of new kinds of readers, viewers and users.”
The Best in Business entry period runs Jan. 4 through Jan. 31. All entries received on or before Jan. 15 will receive an early-bird rate.
Content from calendar year 2010 is eligible. All entries must be submitted online in pdf or permalink format.
