Starcom, MRY, and Huge were among agencies awarded last night at the 2013 Digiday Mobi Awards Gala, honoring overall excellence and breakthrough innovation in mobile media, marketing and advertising. Digiday awarded Circa as the top mobile innovator in honor of its pioneering efforts to construct a news organization for the mobile age.
Starcom won for their work on a campaign for the Samsung Galaxy Camera in the category of “Best Mobile/Social Campaign” and in the category of “Best iPad/Tablet Ad Campaign” for their partnership with Avis.
MRY also had a big year in their partnerships with Sony and Coca-Cola, particularly with the “Mix On” campaign with Coca-Cola, a finalist in both “Best Mobile/Social Integrated Campaign” and “Best iPad/Tablet Advertising Campaign.” They took home the Mobi for their work with Sony Mobile on the Xperia “PhotoHopping” campaign.
R/GA was a finalist in two categories for its work with three brands: Ray-ban, Johnson & Johnson, and Nike. They got beat out by Purina Pro Plan in the “Best Mobile App for Branded Content” category, and by Huge in the “Best Mobile Website” category.
The “Best Mobile App for Editorial Content” finalists were The Boston Globe’s iPhone app, USA TODAY’s iPad app, and Comedy Central working with Roundarch Isobar on a stand-up app. Comedy Central won, with enthusiasm, for their stand-up app.
