The Phoenix Ogilvy Group has once again received international acclaim, bagging two highly coveted awards at the 27^th edition of Campaign Asia's Agency of the Year Awards 2020, the company said this week.

Ogilvy Digital became the only Sri Lankan digital agency to be recognized at this year’s event, winning Silver for the 'Rest of South Asia Digital Agency of the Year' award, while Ogilvy Media walked away with the 'Rest of South Asia Media Agency of the Year’ Bronze Award for a record third consecutive year.

Speaking on the wins, Irvin Weerackody, Chairman, Phoenix Ogilvy Group Sri Lanka attributed the achievement to the steadfast commitment of the teams and strategic business management during the pandemic situation. “2020 was doubtless one of the most challenging years for businesses globally, and doubly so in Sri Lanka that had just begun its recovery from the terrorist attacks in April 2019. In the past year, we were able to achieve outstanding results as a company, and support our clients in achieving their communication and business goals; thanks to steadfast decisions made during the pandemic by these two companies, and dedicated teams that crafted innovative campaigns under the most trying and unprecedented circumstances,” he stated.

Ogilvy Digital won the highest award in the category this year, for working to expand its footprint amidst the challenges of the past year. Ogilvy Digital leaned on its excellent technical and organizational infrastructure and human capital, to deliver superlative results through premium services, which was welcomed by clients.

Ogilvy Media meanwhile was recognized with its Bronze 'Rest of South Asia Media Agency of the Year’ award for offering innovative and diverse media solutions, as it strategically navigated through the pandemic to help clients during this challenging period, whilst retaining all accounts.
