Mobium swept the 2010 ACE Awards in New York City on Tuesday night, winning a total of 27 awards across 18 different categories for 8 clients; far outstripping every other agency that entered.
The ACE (Advertising Creative Excellence) awards attract entries from the premier marketing agencies and companies nationwide, and are known for choosing the most demanding business-to-business creative and corporate marketer judges in the country.
"This is the Iron Chef of b-to-b marketing awards programs. Winning these ACE awards is a refreshing validation of the power and importance of the creative product in b-to-b work. Chiefly because they are judged by a combination of creatives and corporate marketers, as they should be. We’d like to thank our clients for creating this work with us and the ACE leaders for understanding how an awards program should be run," says Gordon Hochhalter, Managing Partner, Mobium.
"We have respect for the ACE awards because they reflect the core of any marketing program: the creative component. This is a lesson BMA National and the Chicago chapter should heed, as they both dismissed creatives from their recent award programs," adds Chauncey Voices, spokesperson for the Creative Voices marketing watchdog group.
Mobium won Best of Category awards for work developed for clients Herff Jones, PayFlex HealthHub, Aprimo, Pitney Bowes, Tower and Mobium and additional awards for Moog Industrial.
