OSSUM awards launched to recognise the best of startup marketers

Did you know that there are 150 million startups in the world and that roughly 90% of them will fold – often due to a failure to find product-market fit? StartUp Marketer (SUM) aims to change those odds by arming startup marketers with the insights, resources, and tools they need to thrive, even in the face of these challenges.

Launched in 2024, SUM is a hybrid startup marketing ecosystem that combines the dynamic support of an accelerator with the collaborative spirit of a community to turbocharge startup marketers’ impact on their companies.

To further celebrate and support the exceptional work happening in the startup marketing space, SUM has announced the inaugural 2024 OSSUM Awards, the first award celebrating the hard work, creativity, and impact that marketers make every day in the startup space. The OSSUM Awards will aim to highlight the exceptional talents that make startup marketing extraordinary, from individuals to teams, and the agency partners and vendors who support them.

Nominations are now open and more details including the list of categories can be found at https://thestartupmarketer.com/ossum-awards/
