2014 Agency of the Year shortlist revealed

The editorial team is proud to present its picks for 2014’s top agencies

Creative agencies once dominated this list, but because marketing has seen so much change in the last few years, they now share attention with media shops, PR agencies and niche specialists.

This year’s contenders for Agency of the Year represent not only those businesses that can create breakthrough ideas and brand-building campaigns, but those that can find audiences in new ways, consult on sponsor partnerships and craft massive hands-on experiences.

You can find out who will be named our Agency of the Year on Feb. 4 at our Best of 2014 cocktail party. Want to attend? Lots of important people will be there. Click here for tickets.
