The third edition of the IndIAA Awards took place in Mumbai on 8 September. Winners were announced in 20 out of the 21 categories.
The IndIAA Awards chooses only one winner in a category, or a joint winner in case of tied scores. Awards are presented to real, hardworking campaigns that are backed by media spends.
Gopal Vittal, chairman and CEO, Bharti Airtel, was the jury chair this year. He said, “This is an award that truly measures the creativity, freshness of the idea, its campaignability and also stuff that is really material. The discussions amongst the jury members were terrific and we believe the winners truly deserve the awards.”
Pradeep Guha, chairman, IndIAA Awards, said, “This is probably the only award that has every big advertiser, advertising agency and media together on one platform. The 'asli' award has turned out to be an 'asli' winner.”
Srinivasan Swamy, SVP, IAA Global, said, “I congratulate all the winners. It was gratifying to see all the clients on stage along with their creative and media agencies. This award salutes the excellence of all co-creators of the award.”
Neeraj Roy, president, IAA India Chapter, added, “In just three years this award has received so much industry-wide experience. It speaks volumes for the concept and the execution of the process.”
