LIA Announces 2025 Winners Across Global and Regional Creative Categories

​London International Awards (LIA), one of the world’s more prestigious Global Creative Awards has revealed its 2025 Global and Regional Of The Year Winners. LIA is included in the WARC Creative 100 Rankings, the Drum World Creative Rankings, ADC Germany, Advertising Health World Top 10, Campaign Brief rankings, as well as, many other global and regional creative rankings.

LIA's 40th annual judging convened over ten days at Encore @ Wynn Las Vegas. In its customary tradition of a total focus on creativity, the Jurors, comprised of the world’s top creative practitioners, meticulously deliberated and discussed with their respective juries onsite through all rounds of judging. With no pre-judging, all jurors saw every piece of work and gave it their due consideration before narrowing it down to the statue winners and finalists. This is a non-negotiable practice at LIA as it ensures that judging is transparent, absolutely fair and without favour or prejudice.

Calculating the Of The Year Awards: All winning work is assigned a point value that correlates to a statue win. The points attained from calculating all Grand LIAs (100), Golds (40), Silvers (15), Bronzes (5) and Finalists (1) contribute to the Of The Year Awards, regardless of entering company. We use the company credits input at time of entry to tabulate these points. We do NOT use the Entrant field to determine these calculations.

LIA is proud to announce this year’s prestigious Of The Year Winners:

For the third year running, WPP is named Holding Company Of The Year. In light of this tremendous achievement, Rob Reilly, global chief creative officer of WPP, said, “Thank you, LIA. And thank you to the jury members who voted for all the work. It is always great to win at the holding company level. But, the most important thing is that our people inside the agencies and brave client partners, the ones who actually make the work, get the recognition they deserve."

​Ogilvy won the honour of Network Of The Year for the fifth consecutive year. They also won three Regional Network Of The Year Awards: North America, South America, Asia; as well as, Ogilvy Singapore won Asia Regional Agency Of The Year. Their work for Vaseline 'Verified' swept three Grand LIAs.

Commenting on their consistent success, Liz Taylor, global chief creative officer of Ogilvy said, “The LIAs are an unrivalled opportunity to look at our creative story as an agency - to see the full scope of impact we’ve brought to our clients across a year, all around the world. It’s living proof of Borderless Creativity and our commitment to always break new creative ground and bring brands and culture together in the boldest, most resonant ways. Ogilvy is beyond proud to be named LIA’s Network of the Year for a record-breaking fifth consecutive time - and to claim this title alongside three Regional Network of the Year wins for North America, Latin America and Asia. It’s because of our clients’ trust and ambition, and our teams’ passion and ingenuity, that we get to stand so tall in this moment. Here’s to all who made it happen!”
