Mindshare Mumbai ranked #3, Mediacom Mumbai #7 in Gunn Media100

Mindshare Mumbai has been ranked third most awarded agency in the world with three of its campaigns making the cut in 2018 Gunn Media 100. Medicom Mumbai secured seventh position with its campaign ‘Bachelor Of Shaving’ done for Gillette securing fourth position among world’s most awarded campaigns.

Gunn Media 100 is a global ranking of the world's most awarded and applauded campaigns and companies based on their performance in media competitions around the world.

According to Gunn Media 100, three themes have emerged from the world's top campaigns for media excellence:

Data is driving fresh media thinking. The top campaign is built around smart use of data. This is a recurring theme in the rankings, as brands look to harness multiple data sources to deliver competitive advantage.

An event-led strategy helps brands stand out. As brands struggle to be heard in a fragmented media landscape, there is a growing focus on 'events' such as Super Bowl, US Presidential debates, and Olympics, that can draw a crowd and interest from the press.

Partnerships are central to youth-focused media strategy. Partnerships with organisations or individuals that bring their own reach are now a key element of media strategy, particularly for brands targeting younger demographics.

Among campaigns, the highest-ranked campaign in the Gunn Media 100 is McDonald's 'Capacity Based McDelivery' by OMD Singapore. MediaCom London claimed first place in the Gunn Media 100 agency rankings with four campaigns ranked in the top 100.

MediaCom is the top-ranked network with eight agencies from around the world - Auckland, Bogota, Dusseldorf, London, Mumbai, Melbourne, Mexico City, New York - contributing to the network's poll position. PHD Worldwide is in second place and OMD Worldwide, third.

For the first time Gunn Media 100 has included a ranking of holding companies. WPP tops the leader board, with three of its networks - MediaCom, Mindshare Worldwide and Wavemaker - ranked in the top 10. Omnicom Group and Interpublic Group follow.

Stephen Allan, Worldwide CEO and Chairman of MediaCom, said, "This is an outstanding achievement, of which I am extremely proud. Every single person throughout the MediaCom network has contributed to our success and has truly embraced our philosophy of Systems Thinking to great effect.

"I am, of course, delighted that MediaCom UK has also been recognised within the Gunn Media 100 as the top individual agency, which is incredibly well deserved. But none of this would have been possible without our fantastic clients, agency partners and media owners who have collaborated with us to create globally-celebrated campaigns. We are proud to have contributed towards WPP's achievement of being named the top Holding Company within the same report."

Martin Sorrell, CEO of WPP, said, "WPP's core purpose is to deliver growth for our clients so we are delighted to receive this recognition of our effectiveness in doing so. And congratulations to MediaCom who, as network and agency of the year, have helped us achieve a hat-trick of awards."

Nike took first position as the top brand with four campaigns featured in the top 100, all from the US. McDonald's is in second place, followed by Snickers and Dove.

Unilever topped the Advertiser's ranking by a significant margin. Procter & Gamble is in second place. Both advertisers have six brands featured in the top 100 campaigns. Mars takes third place with five campaigns in the top 100.

The US dominates the rankings with 30 campaigns in the top 100, 12 of which feature in the top 20. UK is second with 11 campaigns. Australia and India follow. In total, 24 countries are represented.
