So lately, Grey is creating utter chaos in the world of Marketing and advertisement. Grey dominated Spikes Asia 2019 with 22 awards across 12 categories; Grey’s greatest success as of yet.
Ocean sustainability, Gender Equality, Microcredits; all the global pressing points have been established as hallmarks through the latest Grey campaigns. Nirvik Singh, Global COO, Chairman and CEO of Grey Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa, spoke on the latest success by Grey.
“It’s been an outstanding performance by Grey and the teams have put in their all to make an impact on so many important issues -be it ocean sustainability, gender equality or bringing farmers into the formal economy”, Mr. Singh said.
Mr. Singh further mentioned the importance of infusing creativity in finding solutions to social problems. Be it for upgrading to a simple app, or be it for saving animals and helping farmers receive microcredit, creativity does not know any bounds. Most importantly, the hard work of the team made all the fantastic wins possible, he added.
Let’s have a look at our very own; Grey Bangladesh. The Bangladeshi counterpart of Grey Group has been going strength to strength ever since their Cannes win in 2016. After winning the Gold Cannes Lion for their Eco Cooler Campaign, they won three Lions for UCB Agrobanking Powered by Shwapno.
