The Gerety Awards pays homage to Frances Gerety, the copywriter credited with coining the iconic slogan "A diamond is forever" in 1948.
With an all-female jury, the awards celebrate excellence in advertising, offering a unique perspective that reflects market dynamics and challenges traditional advertising norms.
Notably, the Gerety Awards employs "Cuts" rather than traditional categories for judging, drawing a parallel to the facets of a diamond.
