Loads of entries!

The metaphorical sack has arrived and we’re delighted to find more than 200 entries for the 2008 World Communication Awards.

Not only does the quality look excellent, but the diversity of companies is astounding with an even spread across the categories.

Let’s hope the judges are up to the monumental task of sifting through all those submissions to determine winners and finalists in 14 categories – the winners being unveiled at the Hilton Hotel on Park Lane on the 26 November.

The shortlist will be announced in September Total Telecom magazine which also marks the start of the main promotional campaign. There’s still time to benefit from this and join NTT Comm., Orange, TeliaSonera, COLT, Easynet, and Belgacom as sponsors.

Also keep a close eye on Total Telecom for the launch of the voting for Person of the Decade. A special award for this year to celebrate 10 years of telecoms excellence, we’ll be asking the industry to vote for the person who has been the most influential in telecoms over the last 10 years.
