“I am pleased to announce the nominees for the thirty-six CBU awards. 2025 has once again been a record-breaking year, with the CBU Secretariat receiving five hundred and sixty-one submissions for sixty-one categories from thirty-one organizations representing eleven countries and territories in the Dutch, English and Spanish Caribbean as well as pan regional countries. That is an increase of thirteen percent compared to last year, which was also a record-breaking year.  For 2025, a new leader in the number of nominations is being crowned. The organization that led the pack with one hundred and three nominated entries is Greater Belize Media. For the first time it edged out the RGR Gleaner Communications Group from Jamaica which still recorded a healthy total of ninety-five nominations for its TV, Radio, Digital and Print services.”
