CMO50 annual program shines a light on Australia's most innovative and effective marketers.
CMO has officially extended the nominations deadline for this year’s CMO50 until midnight on Wednesday 16 August.
Now in its third year, the CMO50 is a highly successful, prestigious annual list that recognises Australia’s 50 most innovative Chief Marketing Officers driving business impact within their organisation. This year’s list is brought to you by our exclusive sponsor partner, Adobe.
The CMO50 is about recognising those taking a leading role in fostering innovation and new ways of thinking not just within marketing but also their wider company, as well as demonstrating commercial acumen and effectiveness. Our ultimate objective is to shine a spotlight on the increased importance of Australian marketing leaders in business, as well as the role of modern CMOs in crafting future business growth and opportunity, and the skills needed to be successful.
To be considered, marketing leaders must submit one completed nominations questionnaire. This can be completed by either the marketing leader, or their team on their behalf. Only one nomination per individual will be considered. Please note these questionnaires are shared with judges but kept in confidence.
We must have nominations by midnight on Wednesday 16 August in order for marketers to be considered for the 2017 list.
You can find the nomination form in online as well as downloadable format at here.
The 2017 questionnaire is about showcasing:
The CMO50 is only open to the top Australia-based marketer within an organisation with responsibility for the vision and strategy of the whole company marketing function.
All nominations will be reviewed by our CMO50 judging panel, who will rate each section of the questionnaire in order to come up with our final list. This year’s CMO50 list will be revealed in October.
This year’s judging panel includes:
The deadline for submitting nominations is so close, so get your entries in! Don’t miss this opportunity to shine as one of Australia’s marketing leaders and brands!

Welcome to Launch Marketing Council’s new 3-part series focused on unlocking the secrets of launching brands, products and service by exploring real-life examples from Australia’s marketing elite, in conjunction with the independent agency Five by Five Global.
In early 2020, I had the pleasure of staying at the newly opened Fullerton Hotel in Sydney. It was on this trip I first became aware of the Fullerton’s commitment to brand storytelling.
If you’ve been around advertising long enough, you’ve probably seen (or written) a slide which says: “They won’t remember what you say, they’ll remember how you made them feel.” But it’s wrong. Our understanding of how emotion is used in advertising has been ill informed and poorly applied.
The launch of a new brand, or indeed a rebrand, is a transformation to be greeted with fanfare. So why is it that once the brand has launched, the brand execution phase can also be the moment at which you kill its creativity?
