For the fifth year in a row, AFIRE’s Summit Journal has been recognized with the Graphic Design USA Award and MarCom Award for association publications—strengthening its position as the leading journal and platform for research ideas at the forefront of global real estate investment.
Since its inception in 2018, Summit Journal has officially earned 28 top awards and nominations for its design, editorial standards, and novel approach to trade journal publication and distribution.
Since its inception in 2004, MarCom has evolved into one of the largest, most-respected creative competitions in the world. Each year about 6,500 print and digital entries are submitted from dozens of countries.
MarCom is administered by the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals (AMCP). The international organization, founded in 1995, consists of several thousand marketing, communication, advertising, public relations, digital, and web professionals. AMCP administers recognition programs, provides judges, and rewards outstanding achievement and service to the community.
