Network outperforms all other media agencies after picking up Grand Prix, 2 Silver and 1 Bronze Lion
Following a fantastic run of success for the agency in 2018, MediaCom has been named Media Network of the year at the Cannes Lions Festival. MediaCom became the most decorated media agency in the competition with eight nominations, Grand Prix for Excellence in Media Planning, two Silver Lions and a Bronze.
Commenting, MediaCom MENA CEO Eyad Abdul Khalek commented:
“2018 has been a fantastic year for MediaCom. We are proud to be a part of a successful global network of creative talent that is producing world-class campaigns and delivering outstanding business results for our clients.
We look forward to continuing MediaCom’s successes into 2018 and beyond, as well as continuing to find innovative ways to ensure the best possible outcomes for our partners.“
Filip Jabbour, CEO of GroupM MENA added:
“It is always exciting when one of our agencies receives this level of recognition as a testament to the ongoing hard work & innovation, at any level. In MENA, and following recent Mediacom successes, Eyad and the team are dedicated to continue raising the bar in driving incremental value to our clients’ businesses.“
The result maintains MediaCom’s dominance at global award ceremonies, as it was named Agency Network of the Year by Festival of Media Global earlier this year and topped the Gunn Media 100, published by WARC. MediaCom also became the only MENA agency to receive a gold at Festival of Media Global 2018.
