Ogilvy Earns Network of the Year Hat Trick at 2026 Cannes Lions with Regional Wins for Asia, Latin America and North America

CANNES, FRANCE - JUNE 25, 2026 - The Ogilvy network was honored on Thursday at the 2026 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity with Network of the Year awards for Asia, Latin America, and North America .

Ogilvy's Global Chief Creative Officer Liz Taylor said: " Here at Cannes we celebrate Ogilvy as an absolute force for creativity. It's by doing the best work, across the biggest and best clients in every region of the world - with the world's best teams - that makes us so proud tonight to earn Network of the Year honors across Asia, Latin America, and North America. Congratulations to all our global Giants."

In Asia, the Ogilvy network demonstrated success with a Gold Lion win for " Vaseline Originals" for Vaseline by Ogilvy Singapore in Social & Creator - Creator Collaboration. The campaign looked to the Vaseline social community for product inspiration, creating a line of products inspired by online creators' viral hacks of the product. Ogilvy Shanghai also took Gold for "Blue Brands" in Pharma - Branded Product or Service Promotion.

Ogilvy offices in Latin America brought in two Grand Prix in the 2026 Festival. De la Cruz Ogilvy's "Uva Uva Bombó n " for the Uva App - which launched a flash sale live during the Big Game halftime show when Bad Bunny sang the lyric "Uva Uva Bombón" - won a Grand Prix in Direct . And the "SOS POS" campaign for BCP Bank in Peru by Circus Grey took home the Grand Prix in Creative Data . The campaign saw BCP Bank create a real-world solution to banking security due to phone theft, turning terminals all across the country into places where customers could block their bank accounts instantly with no calls or apps. By simply entering their ID number and PIN on the POS keypad, customers could protect their money in an instant until they could get in contact with their bank.

Ogilvy's Network of the Year in North America win was spurred on by DAVID New York earning the Grand Prix in Entertainment Lions for Gaming for "Copycats Welcome" on behalf of Clash Royale. The campaign invited players of copycat games to a platform where they could upload their progress and currency from those games and turn it into Clash Royale currency. Grey New York's campaign for Corona, "Lime Guides ", which marked limes with guidelines to cut wedges that would fit perfectly into a Corona bottle, won Gold in Direct - Small-Scale Media.

Two Gold Lions highlighted the Ogilvy global network's additional wins on Thursday.

DAVID London and DAVID Madrid's "r/ eal reviews" for Dove won Gold in Creative Strategy - Audience Insight .

In a world full of sponsored positivity, Dove placed a bet on real with its "r/ eal reviews" campaign. Dove didn't just embrace opinions from Redditors on the brand's 10-in-1 Intensive Repair Serum Mask -it amplified them , sponsoring honesty over praise. Raw and unfiltered Reddit reviews - even ones that weren't positive - were highlighted on billboards and other assets throughout the campaign. The campaign represented Dove's Real Beauty brand ethos, championing real representations of beauty in its advertising and communications . The campaign took home Gold in the Creative Strategy - Audience Insight category , as well as earning Silver in Brand Experience & Activation - Customer Acquisition & Retention and a Bronze in Creative Strategy - Consumer Goods.

DAVID London Chief Creative Officer Selma Ahmed said : "Winning another Gold for a campaign that was born from a briefing right here in Cannes last year, just as we'd opened the office in London, is just fantastic. An unforgettable first year with Dove for DAVID London, and the first of many."

Circus Grey's "SOS POS" for Peru's BCP Bank added to its impressive Lions haul, earning Gold in the Brand Experience & Activation, Use of Mobile & Devices category on Thursday.

The Ogilvy network won a total of 2 Gold, 6 Silver, and 12 Bronze for a Day 4 haul of 20 Lions, increasing its overall Festival total to 74 Lions.
