The Public Relations Society of Jamaica (PRSJ) and the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Caribbean have joined forces to find Jamaica's most outstanding communications influence.

The Caribbean Communications Icon will be an annual award.



Any member of the public can put forward nominations for the Caribbean Communications Icon by showing how the person or organisation has contributed in a tangible way to the growth and development of Jamaica’s communications industry over the past 20 years.

The IABC Caribbean is one of the many chapters of the international association. The PRSJ was founded by local practitioners in 1981.
