The 2024 ADWEEK's Agency of the Year Awards: Who's Taking the Crown?
Get ready to witness the crème de la crème of advertising agencies as ADWEEK unveils its Agency of the Year awards for 2024. These prestigious accolades honour the cream of the crop, setting the bar high for the industry's future.
ADWEEK places a premium on creativity, business outputs, and above all, the treatment of employees. You know, because it's the people behind the scenes who truly drive the business forward. The winners will be announced in December, so grab your popcorn and stay tuned!
The awards categories:
- Global Agency of the Year: This category applauds the agency networks that have made a global impact, setting themselves apart with their exceptional work.
- U.S. Agency of the Year: A recognition of the outstanding U.S.-based agencies that shine, regardless of their size.
- International Agency of the Year: This award celebrates agencies outside the U.S. that have impressed the judges and made their mark in the global arena.
- Breakthrough Agency of the Year: A spotlight on innovative agencies that have only been in the game for five years or fewer, but have already shown remarkable progress or excelled in emerging marketing disciplines.
Possible Contenders:
- Innocean USA: This upcoming agency clinched El Pollo Loco's creative business in a competitive review in 2025 (yes, a bit ahead of schedule), signifying its rise in the industry. While no direct 2024 award-related mentions have surfaced, Innocean USA certainly seems to be a force to be reckoned with.
- Monks: Fresh off its win as Adweek's first ever AI Agency of the Year in 2023, Monks has since racked up several accolades in 2024, including Optimizely Partner of the Year, Adobe Firefly runner-up, and the Workato AI Visionary Impact Award. While Monks might not have been explicitly listed as a 2024 Agency of the Year contender, its recent AI-driven successes suggest they're one to watch!
- 2025 Awards Activity: ADWEEK launched its 2025 Media Agency of the Year Awards in April 2025, confirming ongoing cycles but offering no 2024 contender details for us to ponder.
Keep your fingers crossed for your favourite agency this December as the winners of ADWEEK's Agency of the Year awards for 2024 are announced! In the meantime, remember: it's always the people behind the scenes making the magic happen!
- In the race to become ADWEEK's 2024 Agency of the Year, Innocean USA could potentially lead the charge, given its recent win of El Pollo Loco's creative business and its rapid rise in the industry.
- With its most recent victory as ADWEEK's first-ever AI Agency of the Year in 2023, followed by several 2024 accolades, Monks has positioned itself as a standout contender to watch for the 2024 ADWEEK's Agency of the Year Awards.
- The values of finance, business, and people alignment will undoubtedly play a crucial role in this year's competition, as agencies vie for the prestigious title of ADWEEK's Agency of the Year in 2024.
