On 9 September 2025, the Marketing Club Austria (MCÖ) and the trade publication internetworld.at presented the coveted award for the sixth time across six categories: ‘Retail’, ‘Industry’, ‘Finance & Telecommunications’, ‘Tourism, Hospitality, Transport & Logistics’, ‘Media, Culture & Entertainment’ and ‘Consultancy, Education, IT, Healthcare & Institutions’. A seventh award recognised an outstanding lifetime achievement. This year, it honoured the lifetime achievement of Werner Lampert, an organic pioneer and the creator of brands such as ‘Ja! Natürlich’ and ‘Zurück zum Ursprung’.

This was the fourth time we had taken on the role of supporting print sponsor

Eva Perthen, Head of Marketing at druck.at, emphasised the close link between print and marketing in her speech on stage. “Marketing builds bridges between businesses and people – and print has always been an important part of this. The Marketing Leader of the Year Awards recognise those who shape this connection with creativity and passion. As the official printing sponsor, we are proud to be able to make a contribution,” said Perthen.

As an exclusive gift from druck.at, each of the seven prize-winners received a personalised doppler® mini pocket umbrella in black, featuring their own name.

Maximilian Mondel, co-founder of the MOMENTUM Vienna agency and co-organiser of the Marketing Leader of the Year Awards, emphasised the importance of reliable partners: “The Awards thrive on passion and high standards of quality – just like our partners. In druck.at, we have had a loyal supporter for years who impresses with creativity and perfection, thereby contributing to the special character of our event.”
