The Licensing International Excellence Awards are bestowed on the best brands, products and initiatives of the year across all aspects of our robust industry – from live entertainment to fashion to toys, and everything in between. We could probably have 100 categories, and it still wouldn’t be enough to celebrate all the talent and success in this industry!
The Lynn Tait Most Promising Young Designer or Artist Award 2025 will be judged live by a panel of esteemed retail buyers.
As this special award category needs to be appreciated ‘in the flesh’ creatives are invited to submit ‘boards’ showcasing their artistic prowess. There is no online submission for this category.
The absolute deadline for entries for this category alone is Wednesday 23 July 2025.
Entries should be sent to Jakki Brown, Max Publishing, The Henries, United House, North Road, London N7 9DP.
Each entry should demonstrate the entrant’s design talents (both generally as well as on the greeting card front) as well as give an insight into their inspirations that serve to set them apart. The ‘boards’ can be any size (A1 is popular) and should include information about the entrant as well as a photograph of themselves if they so wish. And do not forget to include your contact details!
Coming Soon
This section of the website includes all the information to enable you to enter all of the product award categories of The Henries 2025. These annual awards are open to all UK/Ireland-based greeting card publishers or distributors.
