Razorfish bags five awards at Global Youth Marketing Forum

MUMBAI: Razorfish India bagged five awards at the ‘Social Media Summit & Awards.’ The agency won the ‘Social Media Campaign of the Year’ award for Van Heusen, ‘Best Use of Twitter’ award for Allen Solly, Van Heusen and Alto #25LakhAltos and ‘Online Game of the Year’ for Alto – K10 Get-Set-Chase.

 

“We feel immensely proud and delighted to partner our clients in this journey of success!” said Razorfish India COO Gaurav Pathak.

 

“We are delighted that the recognition comes in, in just less than two years of our operations in India,” he added.

 

Razorfish is the digital AOR for Maruti and has also set up and drives “The Epic Center” housed within Madura Fashion and Lifestyle for responsive social listening and interventions.

 

Razorfish India CEO Charulata Ravi Kumar said, “Clearly, when the client encourages the agency to drive innovative business solutions and the agency delivers it through an integrated approach of strategy, technology and creativity, it’s already a winning team. And these awards corroborate just that.”

 

Maruti Suzuki India VP (marketing) Manohar Bhat added, “Maruti has already been ranked the topmost Indian brand and has the highest SOV in the social media space. But we like to constantly challenge ourselves to keep doing something innovative and engaging with our consumers and Razorfish aligns itself very well to this ambition. This award is a reflection of this partnership."

 

Allen Solly COO Sooraj Bhat informed, “With the all-pervasive presence of the digital medium, brands will need to continuously look at how they engage with consumers. From an era of manufacturer speak, brands have had to move to a more human level, especially when the consumer is in charge of conversations. Allen Solly has been working closely with Madura Fashion and Lifestyle's Listening Center - The Epic Center, to look out for opportunities where the brand can find a role. 'How Allen Solly said Sorry' was one among many such campaigns we have run in a little under a year. In this, I am proud that the team at Epic Center showed the presence of mind to come up with a response, completely in the brand's tone of voice.”

 

Van Heusen COO Vinay Bhopatkar said, "This is a huge moment of pride for us. Van Heusen looks at the digital medium very seriously with the objective to engage and build associations with its consumers. The brand is constantly striving towards innovation and exciting ways to connect with its consumers on this platform. This recognition reaffirms the work we are doing."
