Among the rankings' highlights is Coca-Cola, which won 17 Lions for its brands and won Creative Brand of the Year for the first time.
“The Coca-Cola Company believes creativity is a superpower that drives growth, inspires people and—most importantly—ignites change," said Manolo Arroyo, EVP and global chief marketing officer, The Coca‑Cola Company.
WPP was named Creative Company of the Year, with its collaboration with Coca-Cola helping to secure three Gold Lions for ‘Thanks for Coke-Creating’, plus 14 more Lions across four pieces of work.
"Congratulations to all those who have ranked this year and have contributed to setting the global creative benchmark," said Simon Cook, CEO of Lions. "The official rankings are a celebration and a powerful tool for future success, while the report is impact-led and built with analysis from the Lions Awards, to deliver tangible examples of how creativity can drive progress."
