ECD, Brad Reilly, says, “This is testament to the talent we have. We aren’t defined by being above or below a line. We focus on big ideas that we can execute across any channel, medium or platform. And the fact the work awarded was all for our top five clients, shows we do big work for big clients.”

The agency has been producing more and more integrated campaigns over the past two years, which has been recognised at Cannes, Loeries and at the African Cristals. After being named the number one agency in the Interactive & Digital Communication Category at the Loeries in 2016, the Bookmark Awards are a great way to build on the agency’s digital and integrated success.

Gau Narayanan, MD of Net#work BBDO, adds, “The agency has a strategy of embracing the rich, creative inspiration from our continent to create distinctive, world-class work that is more digital and more integrated; and the Bookmarks are a great recognition of a strategy being realised. We could not do the work we do without the partnership of great clients, and, of course, our great people.”
