Mobium Creative Group Dominates CEBA Awards: Most Finalists and First Place for Interactive

2003-10-30

For the second straight year in a row Mobium Creative Group, an integrated branding and communications agency, dominated the 2003 Creative Excellence in Business Advertising (CEBA) Awards with six Finalists and First Place award in the Interactive Category. The CEBA Awards honors the best in Business-to-Business (B-to-B) advertising, and the creative minds behind the advertising. The awards are presented by the American Business Media (ABM) in New York.

With six awards, Mobium placed more work than any other agency, far outstripping HSR (3), Martin Williams (2) and Fallon (1), Carmichael Lynch (1) and Arnold Worldwide (1). Mobium received a First Place in the highly competitive Interactive category.

“Mobium won two of the three awards given for interactive campaigns, and three of six awards given in two interactive categories. This speaks to our core competence of developing engaging interactive work on the business to business level that trumps what is being done on the business to consumer level” says Guy Gangi, a partner at Mobium Creative Group.

“Dominating the categories for two straight years in this national competition is a strong indication that the best work is coming out of agencies like Mobium, and that the day of the dinosaur agencies has passed.” says Gordon Hochhalter, a partner at Mobium Creative Group, who was in New York to receive the awards.
