The shortlist is out for the 13th annual Agency of the Year Awards in Singapore. Yep, its been 13 years! Judged by an independent panel of high-calibre, client-side marketers, the awards focuses on overall agency performance, not just their work. With 23 categories recognising various disciplines, all agencies, large and small, have the chance to shine.
The Agency of the Year Awards offers agencies a great opportunity to impress our jury with their outstanding products and services, business performance, people and perspectives. This year we also introduced four new categories: Boutique Agency of the Year, Consultant of the Year, Influencer Agency of the Year, Video / Production Company of the Year. Across the categories available to enter this year, we received 208 entries, the most popular categories were Boutique Agency of the Year, Digital Agency of the Year and Independent Agency of the Year.
One of our judges, Joey Tan, executive director, global voice and virtual transformation, Standard Chartered, commented a few agencies have demonstrated “thought leadership and strategic view” that is much needed today. Meanwhile, Mayra Hurtado, senior director, concept to consumer, adidas SEAPAC added she sees a number of the young cohort of agencies with fresh ideas, and it is clear that new generation is very adept at combining technology with exiting and creative executions.
Judge, Alin Dobrea, head of marketing solutions and partnerships, ZALORA Group commented that agencies which entered this year showed strong creative ideas backed up by 360 executions with data-driven insights, “all of this with some amazing results to show”
The agency that is the most successful across all categories will receive the coveted Grand Prix title of Agency of the Year 2020. Last year TBWA\ Group took top honours. Who will wear the crown in 2020? Let's take a look at our finalists:
