Now in their eighth year, The Drum Online Media Awards identify the cleverest, boldest and most original purveyors of news and views from around the world.

There is no more exciting development in the world of media than online news and information. The industry has its obvious big hitters in CNN, The BBC and The Huffington Post to name a few. With great resource and imagination, you would consider them unbeatable, yet, it can be some of the smaller news sites that can break the biggest news.

Awards ceremony: Tuesday 22 May 2018
