With 15 different winning campaigns, they earned awards across almost every sector from Artistry & Craft in Advertising, Audio/Radio to Print, Film Craft and Positive World Impact, 16 different category groups in all! A most deserving recognition for creative excellence in advertising that was proven again and again at this year’s NYFA competition.”
Alexander Schill, Global Chief Creative Officer, Serviceplan Group commented: “To be named Independent Agency of the Year does not only make me proud of our work, but even more proud of our people around the world, who work hard every day to make our little global network a true alternative to the big old, established cruise ships out there. Fresh thinking, mixed teams and a glimmer of naive braveness – no other place I could ever feel more comfortable.”
