US/UK/Brazil/Singapore quarterly print magazine Contagious is the latest global creative outfit to heap praise on Colenso BBDO, naming the NZ agency the No.1 advertising agency in the world.

“Our list recognises the best and bravest agencies in the world and was created to hero those that consistently set the standard for excellence and innovation in marketing,” said London-based Contagious editor Alex Jenkins.

Contagious rankings are derived through the analysis of campaigns featured on the Contagious I/O research and intelligence platform during 2015.

“The great thing about the Contagious ranking is that you can’t game the system,” explained Jenkins. ‘You can’t spend more on award submissions. You can’t shout louder on a jury for your agency’s work. All you can do is consistently produce exceptional work for all your clients.”

Colenso managing director Scott Coldham said: “To be recognised by a publication with the objective and increasingly high standards of Contagious, and to be in the company of the agencies we are. is truly humbling.

“Doing great work across the breadth of both our client base, and in a variety of disciplines is what we strive for, so this result is really rewarding for the team.”

The other top 10 agencies on the Contagious list are: #2 Forsman & Bodenfors Stockholm( #2), Marcel Paris (#3), Droga5 New York (#4), R/GA New York (#5). CP+B Boulder (#6). Grey London (#7), Prime Stockholm (#8), Grey New York (#9), Leo Burnett Beirut (#10).
