It’s our view that the Merlin Awards are quite special…every year each Academy Scholar selects just one person from the many mentors and speakers they meet during the programme to receive a ‘Merlin’. It’s a small way of appreciating the individual from whom the Scholar received that extra special gift of wisdom, advice, insight & inspiration.
The awards, selected by the 2011 Scholars, were personally handed to the recipients at a party in the O2 on Monday 14th May. The award, a crystal owl named after the Academy’s Mascot ‘Merlin’ was presented in a gorgeous black presentation box designed by the Marketing Academy’s Design Faculty partners JKR.
