About the European Digital Communication Awards

The European Digital Communication Awards were initiated by the Quadriga University of Applied Sciences; a graduate school specialized in the field of professional communication. The objective was to identify and honour innovative approaches and solutions by taking the entire spectrum of online communications into account, and to foster dialogue between practitioners and academics active in the field. A high-level jury of 35 members is comprised of leading practitioners and academics. Each year candidates are evaluated according to criteria such as general idea, strategy, creativity, results and efficiency. Thousands of companies from all over Europe apply to participate every year.

About Golden Drum

Golden Drum, an advertising and PR summit, which has been held in Portoroz on Slovenia's Adriatic coast for the past 18 years, provides a competitive environment for projects from all over the world. At this festival, whereas only marketing projects had been evaluated until two years ago, PR projects too have been evaluated since last year. During the three-day festival, in addition to the contest itself, the latest developments in the field of advertising and PR are assessed at workshops, conferences and meetings. Last year Turkcell received the "Best Corporate PR", Best PR Team" and "Best PR Event" awards following the 3G speed test event held in Diyarbakir and Paris.
