The Spikes Asia Festival will once again culminate in an Awards Ceremony this year where the best creative of the region will be celebrated on stage.
In addition to Bronze, Silver, Gold and Grand Prix Spikes that may be awarded in each competition section, four special awards
are made to agencies, networks and
clients that have made an outstanding contribution to creative excellence
in the region.

Network of the Year is given to the agency network that obtains the highest score for
entries in the TV/Cinema, Print, Outdoor, Radio, Media, Digital, Direct &
Sales Promotion, Design, Integrated and Craft sections.
To form part of the network for consideration in the
calculation, the company concerned must be wholly or majority owned by the
network. Entrants will be asked to declare which, if any, agency network each
entry is affiliated to at the point of entry – e.g. Saatchi & Saatchi,
Ogilvy, BBDO etc. The Network of the Year Award’s calculation will be
based on the combination of points won by an agency network for ALL of
its awards won and ALL of its shortlisted entries.
If an entry is shortlisted and then goes on to win an award,
the shortlist point is no longer counted.
In the case of a tie, first the number and then the rank of
the awards will be taken into consideration. Finally, if necessary, all
shortlist points will be taken into consideration.

| Network A |

The Spikes Asia Agency of the Year Award will be given to
the agency that obtains the highest score for its entries in the sections

entered by the agency or another party.
The Award will be given to one office only – points awarded
to sister companies will not be combined. For example, the points for TBWA\Hong
Kong and TBWA\Shanghai will be considered separately. Where more than one
agency has been credited on the original entry forms, the points will be
divided pro rata amongst each agency.
The calculation is based on all the awards won by an agency,
but will include a maximum of 10 points for shortlisted entries. In the case of
