"In the twenty five years of our Marketing Excellence Awards, I'd say two things are constant: One, the market is always changing. Two: marketers step up time and again to deliver innovative programs that drive growth," said Dave Munn, Chief Community Officer, Momentum ITSMA.

Highlights from this year's winners include:

• Leveraging employee insight to expand the corporate brand and create a compelling and authentic employee value proposition that boosts recruiting and retention success. 
• Building a 1:Few Account-Based Marketing (ABM) campaign, focused on education, to accelerate the understanding and adoption of a new service that will ultimately benefit not just the client but all of society.
• Creating an interactive experience to change the thinking of an industry where word-of-mouth, referrals, and a strong sales team are viewed as the best ways to reach a target audience.
• Partnering closely with a client to build relationships within the C-Suite and co-creating an ABM strategy for business transformation that provides significant competitive advantage for the client.
• Launching a new sales channel and marketing function that has led to millions of dollars in both influenced and directly sourced pipeline, far exceeding original stretch goals.

• Cisco, with the most Finalist Award Placements over the past 25 years
• Wyatt Urmey of IBM, for the Longest Award Submission Streak
