It was a big night for Together and FCB at the 2022 IAB New Zealand Digital Advertising Awards held at the Auckland War Memorial Museum last night.
Together took out two of the top spots; Agency of the Year, and the Best in Show Award for its work with AIA New Zealand, alongside five Gold and five Silver awards.
This comes after similar recognition at the 2022 NZ Beacon Awards where the agency was named Media Agency of the Year and again won Best in Show.
Kris Hadley, Managing Partner at Together says the team were thrilled to have so much of their digital and data work recognised across a range of categories and in a year with a record number of entries.
“Being named Agency of the Year and winning Best in Show was the icing on the cake and testament to our phenomenal team and clients as well as our focus on engineering growth for our clients. We’re so excited about where our industry is heading and helping clients to be at the forefront of that change.”
FCB also had a successful night finishing up as most awarded agency for the fourth year in a row with five Golds and seven Silvers for its work with NZ Police, Fire and Emergency New Zealand, European Motor Distributors and Mercury.
“All four campaigns demonstrate the high level of collaboration between our media, data, and creative teams along with clients and media partners. They are all examples of FCB’s integrated offering working perfectly to deliver outstanding results for our clients,” says Philippa Allnutt, Head of Connections Planning at FCB.
Chris Thomas, Group Strategy & Product Director at FCB says: “It’s great to see the team’s never finished attitude and relentless commitment to pushing boundaries recognised. We’re thankful to have the opportunity to work with brave partners that are willing to commit to innovative work and take leaps of faith on new, untested approaches with us. It’s with this risk, that we continue to see previously untapped reward unlocked.”
The IAB New Zealand Digital Advertising Awards celebrates innovation and effectiveness across the digital media advertising industry in New Zealand.
