Crossmedia Award: Gold for Equipe
The twelfth Crossmedia Awards ceremony took place at Komplex 457 in Zurich. Among the 44 campaigns submitted, Equipe took home the award for its Samsung Galaxy S6 launch campaign.
The Crossmedia Award, worth 10,000 Swiss francs, which influences the annual Advertising Week Creative Ranking has been awarded. Together with presenter Frank Baumann, jury president Marco Taborelli and Goldbach Group CEO Michi Frank handed over the award in front of the assembled Swiss advertising industry. Of the nine campaigns that made it onto the shortlist, Equipe's Samsung campaign convinced the jury the most. "The advertising slogan "What's next is already here" was implemented in a very entertaining way cross-medially and individually for each advertising medium. Moreover, the target groups were directly and emotionally picked up in a creative way with live acts, such as the one with Seven at the main station in Zurich," says jury president Marco Taborelli.
