SILVER GRAVITY ENTERTAINMENT ANNOUNCES PIONEERING STORYTELLING EXCELLENCE AWARDS FOR 2025

Industry Leader Rose Sandy Launches Ground-Breaking Awards to Celebrate Representative Voices and Inclusive Storytelling Across All Media

LONDON, UK - A transformative initiative in storytelling recognition is set to launch in October 2025 with the inaugural Silver Gravity Story Excellence Awards. Founded by Rose Sandy, former HarperCollins Publishers  publisher and international thriller author, these awards will celebrate outstanding achievements in representative storytelling across all formats and platforms.

The initiative represents Silver Gravity's commitment to amplifying storytelling and narratives that reflect our global society. Early support has come from across the entertainment spectrum, with preliminary discussions underway with streaming platforms, publishing houses, production companies, and media organisations. Several FTSE 100 companies have expressed interest in category sponsorship, acknowledging the awards' potential to transform how stories are told and whose voices are heard.

“Stories shape our understanding of the world and each other,” says Rose Sandy. “After two decades in media and publishing, I’ve seen how crucial it is to celebrate and elevate storytelling in all its forms. These awards will recognise excellence in representation across every platform where stories come alive - from books to screens, from podcasts to digital innovations.”

Key industry players expressing early support include:

  • Global streaming platforms
  • Major publishing houses
  • International production companies
  • Leading technology firms
  • Digital content creators
  • Media corporations

The inaugural ceremony will celebrate excellence in:

  • Literature (print, digital, audio)
  • Screen content (original screenplays, adaptations)
  • Digital storytelling
  • Podcasts and audio narratives
  • Cross-platform storytelling innovations
  • Breakthrough talent recognition

Important Dates:

  • Partnership Commitment Deadline: January 15, 2025
  • Awards Submission Period: March-July 2025
  • Shortlist Announcement: September 2025
  • Awards Ceremony: October 2025 (Central London venue TBC)

Partnership opportunities range from £5,500 to £50,000, with bespoke packages available for principal sponsors. Early commitment benefits are available for partnerships confirmed before December 31, 2024.

The Silver Gravity Story Awards extend beyond a single ceremony through a dynamic year-round programme of industry initiatives. This includes exclusive masterclasses, networking events, and professional development opportunities designed to nurture emerging talent and champion inclusive storytelling.

The programme launches at London Book Fair 2025, where founder Rose Sandy will deliver a keynote address at the Writer's Summit, setting out a vision for the future of storytelling across platforms. This event marks the beginning of a transformative year for narrative excellence.
