About The Caribbean Peer Awards

The 7th staging of this event as it has in the past will attract professional marketers and advertisers from all over Jamaica and the region. This will be a red carpet and Black Tie event and is expected to attract an estimated 150 attendees.

The Peer Awards Foundation will be using this and subsequent events to raise much-needed funds to undertake the work of the foundation going forward.

The goal of the Peer Awards Foundation is to make the event regional. Having staged the event in Jamaica since 1998, with the last staging in September 2006, it was felt that competing on a regional level would be far more beneficial for all concerned. It would also provide a platform and avenue for more regional cooperation.

The real benefit of a regional event such as the Caribbean Peer Awards is that it encourages everybody within the industry to strive, excel and be recognized. This is presently lacking and the Caribbean Peer Awards will be one such avenue.
