B2B Communications Awards Programs

BMA is proud to have the oldest, largest and most prestigious business-to-business communications award programs.

B2s Awards
You knew them as the Pro-Comm awards. Now they're the B2s. Because business isn't just connecting with business anymore. It's talking to employees, partners, analysts, government, and consumer as well. The B2s recognize the work business marketers and agencies do "2" engage employees, sales forces, channel partners, government and, sometimes, even consumers while Pro-Comm focused on narrowly defined traditional b2b work. The B2s also encompass other marketing responsibilities, including strategy, and give business marketers a way to be recognized for non-mar-com achievements while Pro-Comm was focused mostly on mar-com work.
