Memac Ogilvy Beirut won two awards: Diamond Sabre Research and Planning for Memac Ogilvy's Roche Breast Cancer Awareness campaign, said a report in the Gulf Daily News (GDN), our sister publication.
The campaign also won the Gold Sabre for Best Public Education campaign.
Memac Ogilvy Dubai also took home the Gold Sabre for the best Digital Campaign for The Autocomplete Truth - UN Women.
Memac Ogilvy Dubai intended to reignite a conversation on the subject of gender inequality through the creation of the UN Women campaign. The campaign spread virally, crossing multiple geographies and language through its inherent simplicity and power of the central message.
