Comments from the Jury on the Grand Prix Winner:
“The campaign proves that if you use emerging technologies in a smart way it can be not only a gimmick, a talking point among your marketing friends, but a vehicle that can take your brand to the next level and help it to make it through difficult times ahead.”

“The campaign engaged people to such an extent that they not only played with it, but even created their own ‘instruments’ and shared their creations online. The brand gave them not just value for money – it provided a new way of interaction with mobile devices. Simple and brilliant, it clearly linked sales with fun.”

“The link to the product and the delivery through relevant and popular technology translated into great results for the campaign. All in all, this campaign shows a great mix of touch points together with a liquid creative redline enhanced by technology."

Audience Measurement

SILVER

Gemius and The Polish Internet Research: Uniting advertisers' and publishers' universes in one single-source research. From content and ad distribution planning to post-exposure verification.
In June 2019, media representatives in Poland formed a coalition named “Marketers for Better Researches”. Their main goal was to form mutually trusted recommendations regarding one measurement for TV, radio and Internet. Gemius developed the solution that meets the recommendations which is the first single-source cross-media measurement of TV, radio and Internet in Poland.

BRONZE

Brand Advertising Effectiveness

SILVER
Verizon Media: Measuring the Impact of Vodafone & Verizon Media ‘Find Unlimited’ AR Campaign
Vodafone wanted to celebrate the launch of the iPhone 11 with a campaign that would be as innovative as the new phone itself. The leading telecommunications giant wanted to position themselves as an innovator in the mobile-space amongst tech-savvy Londoners within the 25-54 age range. Verizon Media aimed to measure awareness and perceptions of Vodafone as well as the levels of engagement with the AR competition.

BRONZE
Mediametrie: Viewability & Exposure duration: Which impact on ad effectiveness?
For digital campaigns, for a long time, the Click through rate appeared as a grail to evaluate the success of a campaign. When measuring the branding impact, solutions such as Digital Ad Ratings appeared as a game changer to measure the reach & frequency, and the ability to target the desired audience; Brand lift surveys (including Médiamétrie’s) managed to prove the effect of digital advertising. However, duration of exposure has rarely been treated in the right way for Digital.
Médiamétrie//NetRatings in partnership with its partner Integral Ad Science set up an innovative research approach to assess for the first time the relation between duration of exposure and advertising effectiveness for digital campaigns.

Consumer Attitudes and Behaviour

GOLD
EDAA: Consumer perceptions and attitudes towards digital advertising post-GDPR
