Agency Group of the Year

The Agency Group of the Year is decided by a numerical formula based on the number of Shortlistings, Bronze, Silver & Gold awards achieved by all the agencies within that Network.

This score is then weighted against the total number of entries by that network into Media Awards 2023 to give a weighted ‘Quality Score’.

To be deemed a Network there must be at least two trading entities within the Network Group.

To qualify for entry there must be a minimum of 8 submissions across all of the trading entities within the group.

The Network with the highest weighted Quality Score will be deemed the winner.
