Mindshare Shanghai is the world's second most-awarded agency, behind only MediaCom New York, according to the just-released Warc Media 100 rankings, which are based on points accumulated from award wins in select shows.

Mindshare Mumbai ranks fourth on the list, and OMD Wellington (7) and Mindshare Ho Chi Minh City (9) also reach the top 10.

Two campaigns from Mindshare Mumbai appear in the top 20 of the same list, in which APAC agencies make up more than a third (36) of the winners. See all the APAC work in the top 100 list below.
