Kenya Williams, Project Manager, DCM Studios, received the award for 'Rising to the top, media' at the 2026 Campaign Inspiring Women Awards.
This award recognises women who have set themselves apart from their peers, have shown early success in media and will maximise their full potential to be the next generation of women leaders in the industry.
Kenya has excelled in delivering high-profile experiential campaigns for major brands including LEGO, JD, Little Moons and Channel 4, and helped curate a longer-term content series with BAFTA while launching a media-first collaboration with Google.
Her work has driven a substantial uplift in experiential and event revenue, whilst combining calm, level-headed leadership with tenacity, a readiness to take measured risks and a strong gift for storytelling.

Shortlisted alongside Kenya and Hollie were:
- Arayo Ajeigbe, Global Partnerships Manager, Publicis Media
- Skye Wilde, Account Director, Dentsu B2B
- Yas Frasso, Digital Business Director, Mediaplus UK
