DDB Group Singapore and BBH Asia-Pacific win big at the Singapore HOF 2015

SINGAPORE – The Hall of Fame Awards (HOF) 2015 culminated with an Awards Gala Dinner on 26 November at Gardens By The Bay , Flower Field Hall, which was transformed into a walk of fame for the people it honoured – in line with this year’s theme, “True Brilliance Can’t Be Ignored”. It rolled out the red carpet for its winners which were sparkling brighter than ever.

Organized by the Institute of Advertising Singapore, this year’s HOF recognized the diverse talents behind the best work across the industry – from media to creative communications.

Rowena Bhagchandani, Chairman of Hall of Fame Awards 2015, MD of DDB Group Singapore said that unlike most award shows that only celebrate the work, HOF wants to exalt the people behind the work. The madmen and women who spend late nights crafting, weekends pitching and their sick days replying to ‘urgent’ emails. These folks are the lifeblood of our industry and HOF wants to recognise, reward and keep them in the business. All this, with the added goal of attracting more superb talents just like them to inject vigour into the industry.
