Havas Turkey is Top-Ranked Middle East/Africa Agency In The One Club Global Creative Rankings 2021
Ranking combines results from The One Show 2021 and ADC 100th Annual Awards to offer the industry’s most comprehensive rankings on creative excellence globally, as well as by region and country.
Following last week’s wins of Gold and Green Pencils, Havas Turkey Istanbul is the Middle East & Africa’s top-ranked agency in The One Club Global Creative Ranking 2021, combining results from The One Show 2021 and historic ADC 100th Annual Awards.
This benchmark creative rankings are determined by the cumulative point totals of eligible One Show Pencils, ADC Cubes and Merits won.
Havas Turkey was awarded a One Show 2021 Green Pencil, which recognizes the most environmentally conscious creative work for the year, for “Water Index” on behalf of Reckitt/Finish. The agency also won a Gold Pencil with DEPOfilm Istanbul for “Birds Will be Back” on behalf of Reckitt/Finish in Out of Home, Experiential & Immersive.
In addition, Havas Turkey Istanbul’s Ergin Binyildiz is the top-ranked CCO in the region, and the agency’s Volkan Dalkilic is the number one ECD.
“Based on results of two of the world’s largest and most prestigious global awards programs, The One Club Global Creative Ranking is the definitive measure for global creative excellence,” said Kevin Swanepoel, CEO, The One Club for Creativity.

The One Club Global Creative Rankings methodology
The One Club Global Creative Rankings provide a cumulative list of companies and individuals based on eligible points earned from their winning entries in both The One Show 2021 and ADC 100th Annual Awards.
The rankings are determined based on the following point values: Gold Pencil/Cube 15 points, Silver Pencil/Cube 7, Bronze Pencil/Cube 3, Merit 1, Fusion Pencil/Cube, SDG Pencil and Green Pencil 30 each, Penta Pencil 50, Best of Discipline 45 and Best of Show 90.
If the same entry wins multiple awards within a discipline, the points for the one highest award in that discipline is counted towards “of the Year” awards. Points are only awarded to agencies listed as Primary and Secondary on entries. If several agencies are listed under Primary and Secondary, the points are divided among them.
The rankings can be sorted and viewed by Agency, Independent Agency, Internal/In-House Agency, Network, Holding Company, Client/Brand, Production Company, Music & Sound Company, Creative, Highest Ranked Work, Country and Region using the dropdown menus.
The One Show 2021 and ADC 100th Annual Awards Global Creative Rankings were announced separately earlier this week.
