Diego Yurkievich, Senior VP Creative Director at Alma said: "The year was very productive for innovation and the talent of the whole Alma team came out to light. I am very happy with the way we are working. The variety of our awards shows that our strategy to connect creative with planning and digital as 'Triplas' is showing great results. The Alma teams are very solid and working really well as a whole, I have no doubt we'll keep growing and exceeding expectations."

Our performance improved over last year, as it's shown in the fact that we won for a variety of clients, across many different platforms from TV, Print and Radio to Interactive, both in Hispanic and General Market categories. And we did it in a region that over the last few years has become far more competitive. We will continue to raise the bar, and at the end of the day produce work that not only generates results, but also stands out from the clutter. I'm extremely proud of the Alma team and so are our clients," stated Luis Miguel Messianu, President and CCO at Alma.
