THE BACKSTORY
In 2004, to herald the commitment to excellence and the growing success of custom publishing, the CCC launched the continent's first award program devoted exclusively to custom publishing. Custom content providers--small and large; B2B and B2C; representing clients in a wide range of industries; and producing magazines, newsletters, and web publications--have responded. In 2004, 250 entries were submitted; in recent years, the entry count has been over 600.
