Nominate for the Most Powerful Women

Every year, Cablefax recognizes the most powerful women based on their influence and power within the industry—as well as their commitment to ensuring that other execs receive the same opportunities to grow and flourish.

The Most Powerful Women magazine also recognizes women across departments including advertising, communications, corporate culture, sales, content, consultants, distribution, digital, finance, legal, operations and more.

NEW for 2021 — Sponsor a candidate for The Rising Tide
In addition to spotlighting the industry’s biggest leaders, Cablefax is promoting the power of one-to-one relationships. This year, we are looking for executives to sponsor a candidate to be included in The Rising Tide.

These are the women whose hard work already makes it clear that they are on the path to making big waves in the future as they seek out mentors, push forward new business strategies and demonstrate boldness and creativity in their professional endeavors. To promote the surfacing of this emerging level of luminaries, we are looking to you – those already in senior positions – to put forth the names of the people they believe will populate the next class of Most Powerful Women.

The Rising Tide will be featured along with their sponsor in a special section of the Most Powerful Women edition of Cablefax: The Magazine, as well as during our celebratory luncheon on Dec. 7 in New York.  *The Rising Tide does not have age parameters. Sponsors can be of any gender.
