On September 3, the ACC held the public presentations and final judging for the Marketing Effectiveness category of the "2019 59th ACC TOKYO CREATIVITY AWARDS," announcing the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Award/ACC Grand Prix and other prizes.
This category recognizes campaigns and initiatives that achieved significant results through outstanding marketing strategy and effective creative expression. Entries were accepted from June 3 to July 8 this year.
Eleven teams that passed the second-round screening participated in the final judging session. Amidst an audience listening intently, each team presented their work using prepared presentation videos and materials, followed by lively Q&A sessions with the judges. As a result, the top prize, the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Award / ACC Grand Prix, was awarded to Daiki Angel Help's "The Restaurant That Gets Your Order Wrong."
