35th Spikes Asia open for entries
14 Oct
Spikes Asia opens entries for the 35th edition of the Spikes Asia Awards and announces the integration of the prestigious Tangrams Awards and the launch of the new Strategy & Effectiveness Spike, in response to the evolving correlation between creativity and effectiveness.
The Spikes Asia Awards, Asia Pacific’s top award for excellence in creative communications, will now serve as the definitive benchmark for both creative excellence and marketing strategy and effectiveness across Asia-Pacific.
The new Strategy & Effectiveness Spike celebrates strategies that deliver measurable results and ideas that balance bold creativity and sustained business impact and aims to champion a culture of creativity, strategy and effectiveness, which is growing within agency and client organisations in the region.
Jenny Lau, Events Director, Spikes Asia, comments, “It’s an exciting time in the evolution of Spikes Asia as we announce the new Strategy & Effectiveness Spike, cementing the awards’ role as the definitive benchmark for both creativity and marketing effectiveness across APAC. This new award reinforces the importance of synergising creativity and effectiveness, which for too long, have remained disparate. We believe that when creativity is effective and effective work is creative, it has even greater power to positively impact people, brands and the world.”
The Spikes Asia Awards are updated each year to reflect the rapidly evolving creative industry landscape in Asia-Pacific.
In 2022, significant changes respond to shifting creative trends across the region.
Spikes Asia launches new awards: The Creative Data Spike, which celebrates the interplay of ideas and information and the Social & Influencer Spike, celebrating creative social thinking and strategic influencer marketing solutions, while the Digital Spike has now been retired.
Atifa Silk, Managing Director at Haymarket Media Asia, comments, “In consultation with the APAC creative community, and in response to rapid evolutions in the industry landscape, a number of Spikes Award categories have been refreshed and expanded for 2022. We look ahead to next March with great anticipation, as an opportunity to celebrate and benchmark world-class and effective creative work from across the region.”
