“This is great news, the team are honoured to be named Agency of the Year,” said Duan Evans, international executive creative director, AKQA. “At AKQA we focus on taking our clients’ business to the next level through combining art and technology in new, powerful, and meaningful ways. It’s great to be recognised by the IAB, which celebrates the most progressive and affective work in our industry.”
AKQA featured in four separate months in 2014 for its campaigns for the Nike+ Training App, two Vodafone Firsts campaigns and Nissan IDx, which also helped the agency scoop the Most Integrated Campaign award.

IAB director of marketing and communications, Sophia Amin, commented: “Creativity appears to know no bounds looking at this year’s nominees in the Grand Prix.
