The Marketing Academy Merlin Awards

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.
