iomart's complex cloud and managed hosting brand Melbourne has been announced as the headline sponsor for the Roses Creative Awards.

The Roses, as they are better known, recognise the best creative work across advertising, design and digital in the UK. This year's awards, which take place in Melbourne's home city of Manchester, are the biggest ever after a record-breaking 720 entries were submitted to the organisers The Drum.

Announcing Melbourne's sponsorship, iomart Group marketing director Phil Worms said: "Melbourne is passionate about providing the hosting infrastructure on which today's digital revolution relies and now, through our sponsorship of the Roses, we have the opportunity to recognise the passion and skill of the creative individuals and agencies making it happen."

Melbourne delivers a high level of technical service at an affordable price to customers across the digital, creative, ecommerce, retail and business sectors and is also a leading supporter of start-up businesses and entrepreneurs through its work with TechHub Manchester.

Music, Cogent Elliott, The Leith Agency, BJL, McCann Manchester and Big Communications are just some of the agencies appearing on the shortlist with work for big name brands such as Samsung, Manchester United, Aldi, Irn Bru and Vauxhall also nominated. The winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on 15 May.
