While the annual Hot List is Adweek’s longest-running franchise, we’ve never thrown a big party to celebrate it. All that changes Dec. 2 with the first Adweek Hot List Gala in New York. It is a major undertaking, with more than 100 awards handed out across the Hot List (decided by our editors) and Readers’ Choice Poll (which at deadline had pulled in 1.8 million votes at Adweek.com). To make the evening even more dramatic—and complicated to pull off—all the winners will be revealed for the first time during the ceremony.

We have layered a lot of firsts onto this effort, and to give credit where credit is due, supercharging the franchise was the vision of Adweek’s publisher Suzan Gursoy, who championed—at times fought for—an ambitious and contemporary rethinking of the Hot List that would transform not only the franchise but also the Adweek brand.
