Editorial Note

Campaign Asia-Pacific is setting out to celebrate the advertising industry’s top performers at the Agency of the Year awards 2011, which will be held in Singapore on 13 December.

The Agency of the Year competition is now in its 18th year, recognising inspired leadership, management excellence, outstanding business performance and overall achievements in the region’s advertising and communications industry. With results tabulated by PricewaterhouseCoopers, it is the only event in the region that honours agency performance at both a local and regional level.

The awards show recognises achievements in sub-regional markets in agency and people categories across five key regions — Southeast Asia, North Asia, Greater China, India and the Subcontinent, and Australia/ New Zealand.

These awards allow local offices and individuals to compete within their sub-regions, with the performance of the agencies counting towards the Regional Network of the Year awards.

Agencies are required to submit entries for the regional Network of the Year award in the Media Agency Network of the Year, Creative Agency Network of the Year, Digital Agency Network of the Year, and Specialist Agency Network of the Year categories.

Please remember that shortlisted agencies in the Media Agency Network of the Year and Creative Network of the Year categories will be asked to make 20-minute live presentations (including five-minute Q&A) to judges in Singapore on 24 November.

Good luck!
