David Lubars, chairman and chief creative officer of BBDO Worldwide, was awarded the 2014 Irving Wunderman Award, for the “indelible mark he has made on the advertising industry on behalf of clients including Bud Light, GE, Snickers, and Visa.” [Direct Marketing News editor-in-chief, Ginger Conlon]
Lubars acknowledged his award with, “John Caples retired from BBDO in 1982 at age 82, and I am proud to be part of that tradition.”
Nick Garrett, Colenso BBDO/Proximity chief executive officer, stated, “The Caples is a tough show where only work that comes up to scratch gets rewarded. We’re chuffed that our mates in Wellington picked up two golds and that we’ve come out as the top Kiwi agency, it’s been another good night for Clemenger group.”
Wayne Pick, executive creative director at Colenso BBDO/Proximity, added: “We may not always have the biggest budgets to work with but innovation is at the heart of what we do so it’s nice to be recognized for this at such a prestigious show.”
