Digital & Social
The previous year’s Digital and New Media sectors were merged in 2016 to form a new Digital & Social category, which recognises those individuals who are most instrumental in shaping and enhancing our experiences online. From health, fitness and lifestyle bloggers to digital educators and facilitators, those listed here are at the very forefront of digital opportunity. As communication becomes ever easier, but concerns over cyber safety also mount, the Digital & Social sector provides a snapshot of an evolving and multifarious industry now into its third decade.
