Global Creative Rankings
Filter
The Global Rankings provides a cumulative list of companies, individuals, projects, countries, and regions based on points earned from winning entries in various industry competitions across the globe.
The Global Rankings are created through the accumulation of points in three tiers of award shows. The One Show, ADC Annual Awards, and TDC Competition accept entries from all over the world, and thus make up the highest global tier; ONE Asia Creative Awards and Art Directors Club Europe Awards sit in the regional tier; ADCE Member Clubs (Ad Black Sea, ADCN, CCA, CCP, LADC) all hold local competitions that reside in the national tier.
For additional information on rankings and point allocation, view more details directly below.
In order to receive points for the Agency rankings, a credited agency must meet the following:
- Agency must be credited under the Primary Agency listing on the specific award win.
- Agency must be credited under one of these credit types:
Agency, Digital Agency, Media Agency, PR / Marketing Agency
When multiple agencies* meet the above requirements on the same award win, the points for that win are equally divided among those agencies.
*Points are also equally divided with any listed Primary Agency credited under the Design Firm and Brand-Side / In-House Agency credit types.
MULTIPLE AWARDS WITHIN DISCIPLINES
If the same piece of work won multiple awards within a single Discipline or in multiple Disciplines, the points for all award wins were counted towards the rankings.
The rankings were determined based on the point values listed on this chart:
