UCW has nabbed another award for its That’s Boss, That’s UCW video.
The MarCom Awards, which is administered and judged by the Association of Marketing and Communications Professionals (AMCP), announced the winners of its international creative competition for marketing and communications professionals for 2023. The awards attracted more than 6,500 entries throughout Canada, the United States and 43 other countries around the world, each vying for a highly coveted MarCom Award.
In a triumph that echoes creativity, University Canada West was recognized as a Platinum Winner in the Advertising/Marketing | Online | Video Ad category for its That’s Boss, That’s UCW video, competing against large international creative agencies and Fortune 500 companies.
“The MarCom Awards represent a celebration of creativity and innovation in our industry, and to receive the Platinum Award is an incredible honour,” said Midya U, Vice President, Marketing and Communications at UCW. “This recognition reflects the hard work, creativity and inventive spirit of our exceptional Marketing and Communications team, whose work has now become a benchmark for the industry.”
This award is now the second accolade UCW has received for its That’s Boss, That’s UCW video. In October, UCW also walked away victorious with a MUSE Creative Award.
The MarCom Awards recognize the outstanding achievements of creative professionals involved in the concept, direction, design and production of marketing and communications materials and programs. Entries come from corporate marketing and communications departments, advertising agencies, public relations firms, design shops, production companies and freelancers.
Winners for the awards are selected from over 300 categories in Print, Web, Video and Strategic Communications.
The award’s judging panel consists of industry professionals who look for companies and individuals whose talent exceeds a high standard of excellence and whose work serves as a benchmark for the industry.
The Platinum Award is presented to those who are judged to be among the most outstanding entries in the competition. Platinum Winners are recognized for their excellence in terms of quality, creativity and resourcefulness.
The Platinum Award comes complete with the MarCom statuette, a masterpiece designed by Society Awards, the same distinguished firm behind the Golden Globe, Clio, MTV and Academy of Country Music awards. This finely crafted statuette is not just a trophy; it is a symbol of UCW’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of creative expression.
