NEW YORK — March 18, 2022 — On the heels of being named the most creative agency network in the world for the second consecutive year by World Advertising Research Center (WARC), Ogilvy is proud to announce that WARC has also named Ogilvy among the most effective agency networks in the world. WARC’s annual Effective 100 ranking recognizes the most effective agencies, networks, and campaigns in the world. Ogilvy ranked as the #2 overall agency network for effectiveness with five Ogilvy offices ranking among the top 50 individual agencies on the Effective 100: Ogilvy Sydney (#2), Ogilvy Mumbai (#5), DAVID Miami (#19), Ogilvy Taipei (#34), and Ogilvy Shanghai (#42). Ogilvy is the only agency network to rank in the top three spots on both the Creative 100 and Effective 100.
Devika Bulchandani, Ogilvy’s Global President, said: “It is an incredible honor to be the only agency network to secure top rankings on both the WARC Creative 100 and Effective 100 lists. This accomplishment reflects our commitment to valuing creativity and effectiveness equally, epitomized by David Ogilvy’s famous promise, ‘We sell, or else.’ Our success is unequivocally linked to producing work for our clients that is both creative and effective in delivering meaningful results. I want to congratulate and thank all our teams and clients behind the award-winning campaigns which made these accomplishments possible.”
