NEW YORK, March 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The inaugural Thought Leadership For Tomorrow (TLFT) Awards will take place May 29, 2025, marking a significant milestone in recognizing thought leadership as an evolving business discipline. Hosted at the exclusive NeueHouse Madison Square in New York City, the awards aim to spotlight and celebrate original, data-backed storytelling that drives industry innovation and societal change.
The TLFT Awards are a pioneering moment in the thought leadership industry, offering recognition and credibility to those at the forefront of this evolving space. Unlike many of the established marketing or PR awards, this program evaluates entries through a unique 4R framework: Revenue, Relationships, Reputation, and Real-world Impact.
A distinguished judging panel, chaired by Ty Heath, Director and co-founder of LinkedIn’s B2B Institute, will evaluate submissions from businesses, agencies, and individuals who have produced exceptional thought leadership content.
“The TLFT Awards are a long-overdue recognition of the people and brands shaping industries through exciting ideas backed by original data,” says Heath. “They’re an important step in developing the foundations of thought leadership as a complex, valuable discipline that extends beyond traditional marketing or PR work.”
“The TLFT Awards represent a vital step in recognizing thought leadership as a distinct business discipline with measurable impact,” says Yogesh Shah, CEO of iResearch Services. “Great thought leadership builds credibility, inspires partnerships, opens new markets, and persuades prospects to invest. These awards will celebrate those who are using evidence-based intelligence to help leaders make smarter business decisions.”
Submissions are open!
Entries are now open and will close on March 31, 2025. Organizations and individuals are invited to submit campaigns that have influenced industries, shifted market perspectives, and created tangible change.
The awards feature seven distinct award categories, recognizing excellence across design, industry influence, brand elevation, commercial success, emerging talent, sustainable development, and storytelling.
“Effective thought leadership shows customers and prospects you grasp their current and future obstacles,” adds Brittany Williams, VP, Editorial and Content Operations at iResearch Services. “The TLFT Awards will showcase content that doesn’t just shape conversations—it incites meaningful, positive change across industries, markets, and society itself. We’re looking for entries that demonstrate both strategic thinking and genuine audience impact.”
Winners will be announced on May 29, 2025, at NeueHouse Madison Square in New York City, following the Thought Leadership For Tomorrow (TLFT) conference. For more information, category guidelines, and submission , visit: https://events.iresearchservices.com/tlft/tlft-awards-2025/
