Romanian Agencies Win Most Awards at IAB MIXX EUROPE 2023

This year’s creative concept is about the MarCom community, which, even if others don’t understand it (mothers, friends, aunts, etc.), IAB MIXX knows everything that happens within it. Like in 2022, the promotion campaign for IAB MIXX Awards is carried out by the national competition’s winner from the previous year, in this case, v8. At the European level, v8 received 4 distinctions: 1 Gold, 2 Silver, and 1 Bronze. Moreover, with a total of 11 awards, Romania was the most awarded country at the festival held in Madrid in May 2023.

“We are grateful that the 4 golds and the Best MIXX Award 2022 have translated into 4 international awards at IAB MIXX Europe. Now we are confident that our approach of putting entertainment for people first works, and we feel this trend in the industry as well. The organizers’ challenge to set the tone for this year’s festival communication campaign delighted us. The concept sheds a humorous and entertaining light on every job in the MarCom industry, not fully understood by friends, parents, aunts, or cousins. It is also an open invitation for advertisers, marketers, and media professionals to join the bubble that understands and rewards them for what they do,” said Adina Stănescu, Creative Director of v8.

A jury panel consisting of over 70 experts and specialists from Romania and other countries has the challenging task of evaluating the submitted projects. The best among them will have the opportunity to represent Romania on the European stage at IAB MIXX Europe. In the previous 11 editions, over 700 campaigns have been submitted.
