Evening Standard Progress 1000.
The Progress 1000 serves to spotlight and celebrate the most influential individuals in London across a range of areas including but not limited to business, technology, science, politics, religion, design, architecture, culture and the arts. Progress 1000 is not about being a winner or runner up - its core purpose is to collectively recognise those who have made an impact and pushed on the agenda. Many of these individuals will be well known whereby others won’t have a public profile but are simply doing outstanding work that serves to benefit the City of London. Each year Progress 1000 focuses on a specific theme - in 2018 this theme was ‘Diversity’.
For a number of years Citi Bank has been the title sponsor of the Evening Standard Progress 1000 event and is a valued and continued supporter of recognising influential people that directly benefit the City of London and its diverse communities. There remains to be a variety of partnership packages available that offer brands direct access to an influential London centric audience on the night as well as involvement in an extensive multi-platform marketing and PR campaign through the Evening Standard that has readership of over 4 million every day . The Evening Standard events teams can offer turn-key bespoke solutions and have a full production team in place to help bring your brand to life and help you achieve your brand objectives.
