Introducing The Dick Reed Awards

JUST Media is committed to fair and equal partnerships. We recognize every person and every company that helps fulfill our mission of Growth with Purpose.  

It’s in this tradition that we throw a celebration every year for the often-overlooked backbone of media: vendors, publishers and platforms.    

New to this year we’ll be honoring our former CEO and long-time advocate of fair partnerships, Dick Reed. Since his passing in May 2019, JUST Media has committed to carry his honor as part of our brand’s DNA.  

In an effort we’re sure he’d appreciate; JUST Media is announcing the first-ever Dick Reed Awards. The Dick Reed Awards celebrate the outstanding innovations, commitments and foresight of media-related companies and luminaries.  

These honors are crowd-sourced by the staff of JUST Media to recognize a wide assortment of innovations and collaborations.
