A note from the 2023 Chair of Judges
"Last year, I was part of the jury for these rather unique awards, This year, I’ve been asked to lead it. What I want to see are powerful cases of corporate self-awareness, a clear vision to drive them forward, their principles applied on the ground, not just marketing speak. I want to see how they help people and talent blossom and come into their own.
As a reasonably new competition, the Campaign Agency of the Year Awards are in a great place to innovate, surprise and be remembered. Last year’s ceremony was great, I loved its energy and its vibe. What makes it so exciting is that you really can’t tell where the wind is coming from, so the stage is the focus of everyone, not wanting to miss who has been named “__ of the Year 2023. It could be you of course but you’ll have to enter first."

Hear From Our Editor
"When an actor or actress wins an Oscar, they are usually quick to praise the team of people behind them. The same is true for a great ad – there is a normally a sizeable team that came up with the idea, created the campaign and then executed it. But they don’t always get recognised.
The highly respected Campaign Agency of the Year Awards reward the very best advertising agencies in the region across all the disciplines including creative, digital, media, PR, integrated and social media. The awards are incredibly comprehensive, covering not just creative output but business growth, new business, workplace culture along with diversity and inclusion.
The Campaign Agency of the Year Awards truly recognise all the individuals behind the agency from the head of the agency and strategic leader through to the media planner, head of new business development and outstanding woman - the unsung heroes inside a modern-day agency. We are here to celebrate them all."

Global Agency of the Year
Our Agency of The Year Global scheme runs alongside the individual territory schemes we run across our Asia Pacific, US and UK markets. It is a separate scheme, with entries being made directly into it from agencies across the world.
It is open to any individual agency and is designed to provide a ‘global playing field’ where agencies from any location can compete directly with each other. Agencies do NOT have to be part of a global network to compete: This is about judging the global quality of business performance and leadership at individual agency level, and not how extensive your office network is.
Making it onto the shortlist for our Global scheme, means that your agency can proudly boast of having truly world - class credentials, having been judged on a worldwide stage.
