Creativeland Asia, the first 'Independent Agency of the Year' at Spikes Asia 2011

Having successfully completed four years in the business of creativity, this victory adds to the numerous accolades and awards won by Creativeland. The achievement also comes along with a Grand Prix for Audi A8 L's 3D campaign under the Best Media (integrated) category and a Bronze Spike in Digital for Hippo's Plan-T.

Founded by Sajan RaJ Kurup in the summer of 2007 with 4 macs and 4 people at his dining table, Creativeland has grown to be a belief shared among more than 8o people across two full-fledged offices in India and 9 strategic offices in Asia. Having established itself as a creative empire and having set global benchmarks, Creativeland Asia has extended the creative and strategic direction into diverse areas. From being invited by Twitter to present Plan-T (a case study on "the most innovative use of Twitter made by Hippo'), to building a formidable digital team, to creating path-breaking campaigns like the world's first integrated 3D campaign for Audi (which also happens to be one of the first campaigns of Indian origin to be adapted across the globe), to eventually winning the creative mandate for all brands of Audi, to creating content for four television channels (including two reality shows), and to venturing into the film industry with their first production - "Karmayogi', Creativeland has grown from strength to strength.

Creativeland's work has been consistently inspiring and has been awarded at the D&Ad, One Show, Adfest, Spikes Asia and Cannes. Early this year, Creativeland ranked 2nd at the Media Abbys and also bagged 4 Gold, 4 Silver and 3 Bronze Creative Abbys at Goafest 2011. For their work on Audi and Hippo, Creativeland won the Platinum Award at the Campaign India Digital Media awards, distinguishing them as the agency with the maximum number of winning entries.

On this occasion, Sajan RaJ Kurup, Founder & Creative Chairman, Creativeland Asia, says, "Winning the "Independent Agency of the Year' award is a proud moment for us. This win is also significant for all independent agencies in India. To bag the Grand Prix for real work and on a global brand like Audi underscores the creative culture at Creativeland. It goes to show that when you consistently create good and inspiring work, lady luck is bound to shine on you sooner or later."
