The agency won ‘Seize the Change’ and ‘Best of Outdoor & Ambience’ awards with the ‘Let Them See Love’ campaign for True Corporation.

It also picked up the inaugural People’s Vote award for the TMB Panyee FC campaign.    

Ogilvy & Mather came in the second place, while Creative Juice\Bangkok ranked third.

Jarek Ziebinski, president at Leo Burnett & Arc Asia Pacific, noted that the success comes as a result of its continuous investment in people and relentless pursuit for creative excellence.

“We have the great privilege to work with marketers who like us and share the same belief that creativity has the power to change people's behavior and build iconic brands. I would like to thank and congratulate all our clients and Burnetters who created the winning campaigns and contributed to this great win,” he added.

On-Usa Lamliengpol, chairman of the Leo Burnett Group Thailand, said it is significant that its wins at Adman this year are for work across categories including digital and interactive media for a market that has long been known for its strength in print and TV.

“We are very proud to be recognized for leading the trend in Thailand in creating winning work beyond our traditional strengths and into the categories of tomorrow,” she added.

This year marks the eighth year of Adman Awards, and it received a total of 750 entries, a 10 per cent increase in submission from last year.
