Following the announcement of the Media, Digital, PR and Design AOY juries yesterday, today strategy is revealing the panels for its oldest and youngest categories: Agency of the Year and Small Agency of the Year, respectively.
These two categories exemplify exactly what the AOYs are all about — to showcase the top-performing advertising agencies with the best body of work during a yearlong period.
The shortlists for the awards will be announced next week Tuesday Sept. 7 through to Thursday Sept. 9. The virtual show will take place in the fall on November 10.
To ensure fairness, Agency of the Year jurors remain anonymous until judging is complete, but with today’s announcement, all 69 members of the jury have now been revealed. You can find the members of the jury panels for the other four categories here. For more information about the awards and past years’ winners, visit the AOY website here.
