“Work that works should be the only topic of discussion when clients look at the economic troubles ahead. Budget cutting is not the answer. Maintaining and increasing share of voice will sort business success stories from those who will struggle for the long term.” said Scott Knox, President & CEO of the Institute of Canadian Agencies (ICA). “Many of the cases in the Effie Awards Canada underline the need for business focussed creativity and to eradicate the notion that marketing is simply a cost.”
The Bronze, Silver and Gold winners will be announced on the ICA’s website and, 2022 partner, LinkedIn each Thursday over the coming weeks, culminating in the invite only, Canadian Creative Effectiveness Summit on October 27.
