Ogilvy UK Wins 10 Golds and the Grand Prix at the DMA’s

Ogilvy had a hugely successful night at the DMA Awards last night - their campaigns for Vodafone, F1, Relate and the Mayor of London scooped a phenomenal ten golds, one silver and four bronzes - and they won the ultimate Grand Prix for Mayor of London too. 

Ogilvy UK was the most awarded agency of the night. The DMA Awards celebrate intelligent marketing - inspiring and effective campaigns that have the consumer at its heart. They showcase the remarkable work and talented individuals and teams across all the creative industries. Each winning campaign had to demonstrate how the work drives meaningful change and exemplify what a successful campaign should be – creative and strategic while delivering remarkable results. 

“The DMAs recognise the most inspiring and effective campaigns that have the customer at its heart, which is what Ogilvy UK does best. Commercial creativity is not an oxymoron. Our 2022 campaigns for Vodafone, F1, Relate and Mayor of London have become benchmarks for excellence – and are Borderless Creativity personified. I am so proud of our incredible teams, and above all our fantastic clients for believing in us. Here’s to an exciting 2023. Ogilvy is the agency to have in your corner.” Fiona Gordon, CEO

“It’s wonderful to see our work be so highly recognised across so many categories from technical ones all the way to craft. And for a range of our clients too. It shows the many shapes of creativity and how borderless our approach is. All the credit goes to our teams and clients, who make it all happen. Phenomenal!” Dede Laurentino, CCO

“In an award show that celebrates intelligent marketing, it is a total joy to see so much of our work with important narratives, across so many of our excellent clients winning such incredible praise.” Jules Chalkley, chief ECD

These awards are about the special magic that happens when strategy and creative work powerfully together. We couldn’t be more chuffed.” Jo Arden, CSO
