The judges comprised a number of marketers from major global brands as well as the editorial team at Campaign. The accolade was based on a number of key criteria including Business Performance, Clients and Work – assessing creative, business, social impact, industry leadership, culture and talent.

The agency's strong creativity was further acknowledged with a win for the network's Chief Creative Officer for EMEA, Adrian Botan, who was awarded Creative Person of the Year in EMEA.

Harris Diamond, Chairman and CEO of McCann Worldgroup, said, "We can't achieve this kind of success without the collaborative vision of our clients across the region. I would like to thank them for their ongoing support and congratulate our leadership for working closely with them to push creative boundaries in a way that contributes to exponential business growth. They have truly set the benchmark in this category."

"The depth and breadth of experience of our people, mixed with pure passion and commitment to the brands we are lucky enough to collaborate with, is what makes this kind of success possible," said Pablo Walker, President, Europe, McCann Worldgroup. "We are unmatched when it comes to Creativity and Effectiveness with incredibly strong leadership in these key pillars of our organisation, as demonstrated through Adrian's award win and Harjot's unrelenting accolades for the strategic community."

Mark Lund, CEO, UK Group, said, "To win once is an honour, but to win two consecutive years, in such a hotly contested category, demonstrates the consistency in approach and output which is only possible by being a truly collaborative network that thrives on the passion for our work and producing meaningful work for our clients."
