Christoph Becker, gyro global CEO + CCO, said: "We are truly honored to be named Agency of the Year by ANA not just once, but five times over the course of our 10-year run. These awards are a reflection of our obsessive focus to transform, together with our clients, the global B2B landscape we love. We are proud to share this recognition with them since it serves as further proof that close collaboration and humanly relevant ideas win."
Bill Tucker, ANA Group EVP, said: "This year's B2 Awards entries were grounded in results and business impact, but also uncovered tremendous creativity in both the top and general categories. Insights, nuanced branding, and, increasingly, brand purpose were at the core of many efforts. Led by jury chair John Harmeling, CMO at Grant Thornton, a jury panel of both client-side and agency marketers from numerous disciplines ultimately selected gyro as the Large Agency of the Year. The decision was based on the agency's creative excellence and ability to drive business results for their clients. Their award is a testament to their success and driving the B2B category forward. We are delighted for gyro as they celebrate this well-earned honor."
