For the 7^th edition of the awards we are delighted to announce our new President of the Jury, Alain De Greef, COO of Seaters and former Head of Sponsoring & Events at BNP Paribas Fortis.

Over the next 3 years Alain De Greef will be developing the awards by increasing their profile and making it easier to enter and to present great work to the jury. Alain de Greef said “I am pleased to be President and to oversee a new chapter in story of the Belgian Sponsorship Awards. This will be a chance to recognise our industry and the creativity and expertise it has shown during this challenging period. We will be judging cases from 2020 and up until end of August 2021 and I’m looking forward to rewarding great work from brands, agencies and rightsholders.” Alain De Greef will chair a jury of experts, specially selected for their sponsorship knowledge.

“I am delighted that Alain has accepted this challenge“, added Andy Hancock, founder of the Belgian Sponsorship Awards. “He has always been a staunch supporter of the Awards since their inception and his 20 years of experience with brands in the sponsorship world will help us identify and reward the best cases.”
