Overview

We think our rising stars deserve to pushed into the spotlight, and given the opportunity to shine. Brand new for 2021, the Silhouette Awards programme will be focused on identifying the lighting industry’s rising stars and subsequently supporting these young professionals beyond as they progress their careers. We are delighted to have the support of an International panel of Judge Mentors, who are all highly respected individuals within the lighting industry. These Judge Mentors will not only select the 20 winners, from all entrants into the Silhouette Awards, but will then formally partner with one of them as their industry mentor for the following six months. Each partnership will be supported by a sponsor. The Silhouette Awards will provide a platform to showcase young industry talent offering much-deserved recognition and publicity for the achievements of all under 35’s to date – and provide the winners the opportunity to learn from the very best in the industry. We are an awards programme that offers so much more than just a trophy. We support you throughout your mentorship journey, which goes way beyond the winner’s ceremony. As a team we are hugely passionate about the opportunities mentorship can provide, and we believe every young professional deserves a mentor, and the opportunity to better themselves. The Silhouette Awards is a collaborative event between Parrot PR and Marketing and Archifos.
