The results of the Media Brand Awards were announced at a fun-filled evening at the Holiday Inn (Aerocity), New Delhi. The idea behind this entire effort was to celebrate the exceptional work by media brands across Print, TV News, TV Entertainment, Radio, Online Publisher, and OTT.
The media and stimulation business in India has been developing at a remarkable rate. However, while the group of spectators/customers are having a celebration time because of the differing alternatives available to them, brands are enjoying a vicious challenge to verify the top spot. Recognizing the endeavors by the Media Brands and informing the customers about the uncommon activities while compensating the remarkable work – is what afaqs! Media Brand Awards paid special mind to.
The Awards mean to respect the advertising correspondence work done by Media Brands over all types of media. Sections were open for 11 classes – Best Out-Of-Home, Best Brand Activation, Best Branded Content Campaign, Best Online Campaign, Best Social Media Campaign, Best Print Ad, Best Video Promo, Best IPR Event, Best CSR Initiative, Best Integrated Campaign, and Best Trade Media Campaign.
