Another feature was that it was a joint win with Mullen Lowe who tallied a similar number. This remarkable feat, achieved within a mere five years since its inception in Sri Lanka is an exciting testament to the innovative and creative approach that is winning for their clients brands in the market.

A further accolade is that ISOBAR’s winning streak has placed them as the highest-ranking Sri Lankan Agency in the Global Effie ranking in both 2021 and 2022.

The ‘Most Effective Agency of the Year’ recognitio­n is presented to the agency that attains the highest added points from all awards won and the most finalist entries at the Effie Awards. For the first time in Sri Lanka, two agencies were named as equal winners. This highlights our commitment to excellence across diverse categories, all fueled by our innovative and ingenious approach with 2 gold, 3 silvers, 3 bronze awards and 4 finalists along with our client IESC YouLead who won Brand of the year and Marketer of the year.

Neela Marikkar, Chairperso­n at the Dentsu Grant Group, emphasised, “This outstandin­g win at the Effie Awards is a testament to our agency’s unwavering pursuit of excellence and dedication to growth and learning, showcasing our capacity to leverage creativity and technology driven by deep consumer understand­ing particular­ly in navigating through complex and uncertain times.
