PROXIMITY LONDON AND UM LONDON WIN DMA GRAND PRIX FOR THE ECONOMIST

Proximity London and UM London have won the DMA 2015 Grand Prix for their ‘Raising Eyebrows and Subscriptions' campaign for The Economist.

Rachel Aldighieri, MD of the DMA said, “This year we raised the bar and the industry responded. Not only did we see an increased number of entries, but they saw a higher standard than ever.

“The Grand Prix winner by Proximity London and UM London for The Economist is a more than worthy winner. It demonstrates that using those core one-to-one techniques like great copywriting, married to brilliant new technology can achieve spectacular results,” she said.

The campaign gave The Economist new prospects, new revenue and a new profile for their target millennial audience.

It clearly impressed the judges - this same campaign won the most individual golds, picking up five further awards. Proximity London won a sixth gold for client Capital One.

Leo Burnett London won a total of six awards, equalling Proximity's gold tally: three for its work for the NSPCC and single awards each for Karma Nirvana, THE OUTNET and ghd.

Wunderman won three golds for its work for the CHECT (Childhood Eye Cancer Trust) charity.

Engine won three golds for its NHS Blood and Transplants work.

OgilvyOne won three awards, two for its work with Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, and a third for IBM.

LIDA won two golds, one for Land Rover, and a second for its work with Women for Women International in the FMCG category.
