Global industry go-to creative publication ranks “The Bridge” as #1 campaign of the year and “Lifesaving Radio” in top 5; scores calculated from wins at world’s leading award shows

Thank you. Merci. Obrigado. Gracias. Grazie. Danke. ありがとう.

That’s the word from Klick Health, after debuting in AdvertisingHealth’s 2023 World Top 10 publication as the year’s Most-Awarded Independent Agency and Second-Most-Awarded Overall Agency. With a body of work that’s been winning the hearts (“The Bridge”) and minds (“Lifesaving Radio”) of creative juries around the world, Klick was also recognized for having created the #1 and #4 most-awarded health campaigns in 2023.

“Thank you–a giant thank you–to everybody at Klick who has believed in and contributed to our vision to become a leading creative force in the industry,” said Klick’s Chief Creative Officer Rich Levy. “And thanks to AdvertisingHealth and everyone around the world who has responded so wonderfully to our work. We are truly grateful and inspired to keep elevating our creativity.”

Klick Co-Founder and Chairman Leerom Segal added, “We also want to thank our clients and other valued partners for their ongoing trust, collaboration, and desire to push the boundaries of health to enhance outcomes for patients. We are on an extraordinary journey together and are excited about the road ahead.”

AdvertisingHealth’s annual World Top 10 showcases the world’s most-awarded health & wellness, pharma, and craft (health) creative campaigns, and the agencies that created them. The scores were calculated from award-wins at five of the world’s leading health advertising shows: Cannes Lions Health; Clio Health; The One Show; The Creative Floor Awards; and London International Awards (LIAs).

Mark Evans, Founder and Co-Editor of AdvertisingHealth said, “What a year for Klick Health. It's no mean feat to be recognized as the AdvertisingHealth Independent Agency of the Year. It requires consistently great work across the board, consistently awarded in an incredibly competitive healthcare environment. Congratulations to the team!”

Today’s news follows a bonanza of top “Of the Year” accolades, including LIAs’ Global Independent Health Agency of the Year and Regional Independent Health Agency of the Year (North America), Clio Health Independent Agency of the Year, Cannes Lions’ #2 Healthcare Agency of the Year and #2 Healthcare Network of the Year, Cannes Lions’ #10 Independent Agency of the Year, and The One Club’s #4 Global Independent Agency of the Year.

“The Bridge,” the animated short Klick produced for the non-profit PAWS NY, tells the “powerful” and “heart-tugging” story of a man struggling with his mental health and, in parallel, a dog abandoned on the streets of New York. The film has inspired jurors around the world to award it top honors, including 14 Clios (one Grand, six Golds, four Silvers, three Bronzes), two Clio Shortlists, seven ADC Cubes (five Golds, two Silvers), six The One Show Pencils (four Golds, one Silver, one Bronze), two The One Show Merits, six New York Festivals Health Towers (one Grand, two Golds, one Silver, one Bronze), one New York Festivals Health Finalist, six LIAs (one Grand, four Golds, one Silver), one LIA Finalist, four D&AD Pencils (two Graphites, two Woods), two Cannes Lions (one Silver, one Bronze), five Cannes Lions Shortlists, two The Creative Floor Bricks, one Webby Award, one International ANDY, one Gold MM+M Award, Best Animation Film and Best Animation/Cinematography at New York Cinematography Awards, and Best Animated Short Film at the Oscar®-qualifying Richmond International Film Festival.

The “innovative” campaign has been a “one-of-a-kind” fan-favorite since its March 2023 launch, with honors, including four Clios (one Grand, two Golds, one Bronze), two Clio Shortlists, four The Creative Floor Bricks, two Silver LIAs, one Bronze Cannes Lion, and four Cannes Lions Shortlists.
