About the awards
The 30th anniversary gala for the IR Magazine Awards – Canada 2019 will convene on April 3 in Toronto. It remains the Canadian IR community’s largest annual gathering and is an evening of unforgettable celebration and networking for investor relations officers along with their senior managements, advisers and analysts.
Since the annual event first launched in 1996, tens of thousands of analysts and investors have voted in the surveys behind the awards. The result: vital benchmarking information on which companies do the best IR. In recent years the awards program has expanded to recognize more aspects of investor relations, particularly the contributions of senior management, as well as to identify the best IR by sector.
In addition, the awards research now covers the perspective of winning companies in addition to the views of analysts and investors.
By popular demand we will present two types of award categories – researched and nominated – both celebrating the success of those individuals and companies that are leading the way in IR across Canada. For our researched categories, companies did not submit nominations. Instead, hundreds of analysts and investors cast their votes and gave their opinions on which companies do the best IR.
In our nominated categories, companies had the opportunity to nominate themselves or other publicly listed companies, free of charge, for aspects of IR that complement our researched categories. More information on the categories and how winners are chosen can be found below.
Taking place on the morning of the awards ceremony, the IR Magazine Forum – Canada 2019 is the must-attend event when wanting to learn about the developments within the world of investor relations.
We’re pleased to have Ramy Inocencio as our master of ceremonies! Ramy is an anchor and correspondent for Bloomberg Television & Radio and Bloomberg’s digital Daybreak global podcast.
