The MARKies is a celebration of the most innovative, creative
and effective campaigns or projects spanning Singapore’s entire
marketing services industry.
The MARKies evaluates individual entries by focusing on campaigns,
creative ideas or the innovative use of media.
While Agency of the Year evaluates agency performance as a whole,
the MARKies provides agencies in Singapore a platform and an
opportunity for them to showcase unique and deserving works of
brilliance.
Any agency can enter the MARKies, and just like the Agency of the
Year, the MARKies will be strictly voted by senior client-marketers
only.
