NoA named Europe's Best Network by Campaign

NoA has been named Best Network: Europe at Campaign’s Agency of the Year Global Awards, held on Thursday 18 June at Jumeirah Carlton Tower in London.

The award is based on an overall assessment of the network’s business performance, results, leadership, culture, specialist capabilities and strategic direction. As such, it differs from traditional creative awards by recognising the collective performance of the entire network.

The jury highlighted NoA’s overall performance and development across markets, noting:

"The strength of client relationships was evident, with clients clearly valuing the agency partnership and the work delivering meaningful impact across both commercial and societal objectives."

"NoA is a strong and well-rounded network demonstrating clear scale, integration and consistent growth across Europe."

The recognition has been met with great pride across NoA. Not least by NoA’s Group CEO, Mikael Jørgensen, who was present in London when the award was announced.

“This makes me incredibly happy. And, honestly, also a little moved. When you’re sitting in London among some of the industry’s strongest international players and hear NoA being called out as Europe’s best network, it really hits you. Not only because of the award itself, but because it recognises a collective effort that many people across NoA have contributed to over a long period of time,” says Mikael Jørgensen.

Thomas Høgebøl, founder and chair of NoA, points out that the significance of the award goes beyond the awards evening itself.

“This is a strong signal that the Nordic model our network is built on has international relevance. In a field of some of the world’s strongest agency networks, this is a significant recognition of the position NoA has built. This feels like a major milestone for all of NoA,” says Thomas Høgebøl.

Campaign's Agency of the Year Global Awards bring together agencies and networks from around the world and assess entrants across areas including business performance, leadership, culture, innovation, thought leadership and creative standards.

At this year's awards, the brand experience agency Bold Scandinavia / NoA was also shortlisted in the Global Branding Agency of the Year category.

In 2024, NoA won bronze in the Best Network: Europe category, and in 2021, NoA | &Co. was named Global Creative Agency of the Year by Campaign.
