Lowe Bull Cape Town received one Silver and one Bronze, MetropolitanRepublic/The Jupiter Drawing Room (South Africa) three Bronzes, Low Bull Johannesburg one Bronze and Ogilvy & Mather Cape Town One Bronze.
Commented Glen Lomas, CEO at DDB SA, “If you could see the wealth of creative ideas that the teams at our agency are producing every day under Gareth [Lessing]'s direction, you would think that four statues is a poor result.”
Lessing joined DDB SA in 2007 from Lowe Bull as executive creative director. According to Lomas, his partnership with Lomas and Emmet O'Hanlon the strategic director is proving to be a formidable force.
“Gareth has brought new people, new energy and new spirit to the agency,” said Lomas. “His talent is only surpassed by his creative leadership and what a nice guy he is to work with. As Bernbach himself said, ‘We want to create an agency where nice guys come first.'”

To see a complete list of all Grand, Gold, Silver and Bronze Clio winners in all categories, go to www.clioawards.com.
The Clio judging process makes it possible for there to be several Gold, Silver or Bronze winners - or in some cases, no winner at all - within individual categories. With more than 20 000 entries received from 65 countries, fewer than 3% receive a Clio statue, and less than 1% receives a Gold Clio. If judges determine a Gold winner is “best-of-show” in its category, they have the opportunity to bestow an even higher honor: the Grand Clio.
Colenso BBDO, Auckland, Duval Guillaume, Brussels, Ogilvy & Mather Toronto and Ogilvy New York were each awarded a coveted Grand Clio for “best-in-show” in a particular category.
Colenso BBDO took the Grand Clio in the Billboard category for “Self Destruct” for client Deadline Couriers, as well as a Gold Clio in Innovative Media for the same ad. Duval Guillaume, Brussels won the Grand Clio in the Innovative Media category with “A Blind Call” for Brailleliga; Ogilvy & Mather Toronto received a Grand Clio in Integrated Campaigns for “'New' Diamond Shreddies” for Shreddies Cereal, and Ogilvy New York landed the Design Grand Clio in environmental design for BP-Auto, Fuel, Eco-Messaging.
Ogilvy & Mather Frankfurt topped all individual offices for the night with three Gold Clios (two in the Print category for Mattel Matchbox and one in Design for Malteser Ambulance Service), followed by Colenso BBDO, School of Visual Arts, New York and 180 Amsterdam with two Gold Clios each.
Across network offices, Ogilvy & Mather was awarded the most Gold Clios last night with five (three for Frankfurt, two for New York), followed by four Gold Clios for offices of BBDO Worldwide (two each for Colenso BBDO and BBDO New York) and DDB Worldwide (one each for Johannesburg, London, Berlin and Amsterdam).
