Amidst a glittering evening at Hong Kong’s JW Marriott Hotel, Campaign Asia-Pacific revealed the winners of the 23rd PR Awards Asia-Pacific. The event, on June 12, celebrated outstanding campaigns, remarkable individuals, and successful companies in the communications industry.
The Grand Prix for Campaign of the Year went to Cheeky toilet paper brand Who Gives A Crap. Their groundbreaking campaign, ‘Winnie-The-Pooh: The Deforested Edition,’ created in collaboration with Eleven and TBWA Melbourne, reimagined the beloved children’s book to raise awareness about deforestation worldwide.
In the Best Culture Category, Zeno Group in Australia secured the coveted title.
Clara Shek, PR Agency Head of the Year at Ogilvy PR, stood out for her exceptional leadership. Meanwhile, Budweiser China clinched the PR Communications Team of the Year award, recognising their excellent work.
