Guinness was awarded Gold and the Best Multi-Market special award for consistency, creativity and return delivered through the ‘Made of More’ platform. Launched in 2012, Made of More is a powerful brand idea that has adapted to new contexts from the story of Gareth Thomas through to the story of a pioneering Japanese women’s rugby team.

“Made of More has powered Guinness since 2012 but it has evolved in execution with each iteration: shaped by culture, ensuring we remain relevant. It is a story we find perpetually inspiring. Guinness has always been a beacon for creativity and now it is also a beacon of creative effectiveness.”

Baileys was awarded Silver in recognition of the successful use of global insights to re-launch Baileys as an ‘adult treat’. The move has revitalized the brand, which is now well established across a range of treating occasions.

Gordon’s also scooped a Silver Award for the insights led ‘Shall we?’ campaign and strategy around the launch of Gordon’s Premium Pink which attracted new drinkers to the brand.
