WHY ENTER?


Build Client Confidence Beyond Borders

Clients want to partner with agencies and teams that can hold their own globally. Success in an international category proves your work meets the highest industry standards. It strengthens credibility and reassures clients that your ideas and execution can compete with the best, anywhere.

Future proof Your Reputation

Technology is moving fast, and recognition at an international level positions you as a leader in that evolution. Entering isn’t just about winning, it’s about signalling that you’re ambitious, innovative, and ready for what’s next. It’s an investment in long-term relevance and reputation.  


Tech is a Global Language

Innovation doesn’t stop at borders. The creative work transforming modern marketing is being built and refined everywhere. Entering the international categories puts you in that global conversation, proving your ideas stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the best from around the world.

Win New Talent

Top talent is being snapped up fast, and the best people are looking for internationally recognised, forward-thinking workplaces. Being shortlisted or winning in an international category signals that your team competes, and succeeds, on a world stage. It helps attract and retain the people who want to work where innovation is recognised.
