Commward: Excellence in Creative Communication returns for its 14th edition, officially launching its 2025 cycle with a renewed vision to honour the most powerful and transformative communication campaigns in Bangladesh. Presented by Bangladesh Brand Forum, Commward 2025 opens its call for nominations on July 13, inviting brands, and creative agencies across the country to submit their finest work for recognition.
Nominations will remain open until August 10, 2025. Campaigns eligible for submission must have been active on traditional and/or digital platforms between June 1, 2024, and May 31, 2025. This year’s Commward will evaluate entries across a total of 32 categories, including six newly introduced ones that reflect the changing dynamics of the industry. These new categories have been carefully curated to celebrate campaigns that tackle emerging areas such as creative business transformation, long-term brand thinking, impactful positivity, and the evolving world of luxury and B2B communication. They reflect how today’s communication must balance creativity, strategy, and social resonance to succeed.
All submitted entries will go through a rigorous two-tier jury process. First, a shortlisting jury consisting of prominent communication experts will review and identify the most promising campaigns. These shortlisted entries will then be judged by a distinguished grand jury panel made up of respected professionals from branding, marketing, and creative industries, ensuring a transparent and high-standard evaluation.
Since its inception in 2009, Commward has grown into one of the most respected platforms for celebrating creativity in Bangladesh. Over the years, it has become more than just an award—it is a driving force that shapes the communication standards of the country. Commward plays a vital role in spotlighting work that blends bold creativity with strategic depth and cultural relevance.
With the creative landscape evolving rapidly through the integration of AI, data-driven storytelling, and immersive digital engagement, the 14th edition of Commward embraces these new tools while staying rooted in the core value of meaningful communication. This year’s celebration will champion not just visually impactful campaigns, but those that emotionally connect, inspire trust, and reflect the shifting narratives of a dynamic consumer base.
