Unfurl the mast! IABC/BC Wave Award Season has officially launched and we’re announcing the nominees!

Over the past 5 years at IABC/BC, we have gathered communicators from all levels of their careers who inspire, lead and generously give their time and expertise. Our Wave Awards program recognizes and celebrates the communicators in our chapter who are charting a course in new waters, overhauling a plan and making a splash as they navigate their careers!

Our 2019 Wave Awards are almost on the horizon, and we’re thrilled to announce this year’s amazing nominees!
