On 8th May we told you about our amazing AIMIA win for the Greenpeace Action Pact project. As if that wasn’t fabulous enough, Action Pact has been distinguished as an Official Honoree in the 14th Annual Webby Awards. We have joined the ranks of the best from all across the world. And we are so proud!
Here is a bit of info about the Webby Awards from their website.
“The Webby Awards is the leading international award honoring excellence on the Internet. Established in 1996 during the Web’s infancy, the Webbys are presented by The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, which includes an Executive 750-member body of leading Web experts, business figures, luminaries, visionaries and creative celebrities, and Associate Members who are former Webby Award Winners and Nominees and other Internet professionals.
The Academy is an intellectually diverse organization that includes members such as musicians Beck and David Bowie, Internet inventor Vint Cerf, political columnist Arianna Huffington, Real Networks CEO Rob Glaser, “The Simpsons” creator Matt Groening, R/GA Founder and Chairman Robert Greenberg, Virgin Atlantic Chairman and Founder Richard Branson, and The Weinstein Company Co-Founder Harvey Weinstein. Members also include writers and editors from publications such as The New York Times, Wired, Details, Fast Company, Elle, The Los Angeles Times, Vibe, and WallPaper.
The 13th Annual Webby Awards received nearly 10,000 entries from over 60 countries and all 50 states and generated over 750 million media impressions worldwide….Webby Honorees, Nomiee and Winners truly represent the best of the Web. They are but a small percentage of total entries and chosen by the International Acedemy of Digital Arts and Sciences….
To be selected among the best is an incredible achievement worthy of praise — and perhaps a little bragging….”
We couldn’t brag, we’re too shocked and beside ourselves with excitement. Well OK, maybe a bit of bragging, if we HAVE to!
Seriously, here at Mettro we have always been pretty humble and modest. We have quietly gone about our business, knowing we do excellent work, knowing that our clients are happy and being so, SO full of pride about that. But no more mr quiet-guy, the time has come for Mettro to stand up and shout loudly from the rooftops:
WE ARE GREAT!
See it for yourselves at the Webby site.
