Metzger Rottmann Bürge Partner wins the Crossmedia Award 2017
The "Home advantage" campaign for Engadin St. Moritz by Metzger Rottmann Bürge Partner won gold at the Crossmedia Award 2017
The 13th Crossmedia Awards were presented on Thursday at the Park Hyatt Zurich. Of the 34 campaigns submitted, Metzger Rottmann Bürge Partner came out on top with their "Heimvorteil" campaign for Engadin St. Moritz.
The Crossmedia Award, now in its 13th year, has an influence on the annual creative ranking of Werbewoche. Of the nine campaigns that made it onto the shortlist, the campaign by Metzger Rottman Bürge impressed the jury the most. "It takes courage to put the design of the campaign in the hands of consumers. But you are rewarded for it," says Christoph Bürge, CEO of Metzger Rottmann Bürge Partner. He is particularly pleased about the award "because the Crossmedia Award is unique in that it not only recognizes creative ideas, but also the innovative use of media."
Jury president Marco Taborelli (Marco Taborelli Consulting) presented the prizes together with presenter Claudia Lässer. The independent jury of experts awarded a total of three campaigns with the coveted gold, silver and bronze trophies.
Jury member Lennartz Hinz from Mediacom addressed the audience at the Zurich Hyatt from Cannes and interviewed Swiss advertising celebrities Frank Bodin, Dennis Lück and Roman Hirsbrunner:
Silver went to Jung von Matt/Limmat and Optimum Media Direction Switzerland with their youth campaign for M-Budget.
Bronze went to Inhalt&Form with the "Zuhause ist" campaign for Möbel Pfister.
