New Zealand's AIM Proximity was today announced as the world's most awarded agency for the first quarter of 2009 by the prestigious Won Report. BMF Sydney came in at number 8 and Rapp New Zealand at number 19. Each year the Won Report ranks the best communications based upon the quantity and quality of the awards won.

AIM Proximity also had three of the ten most awarded campaigns for the quarter, Warehouse 'The Great Love Conspiracy' was fourth, iPhone Jonny for Yellow was sixth and Innovation Fold website for Vodafone was ninth.
Darryn Melrose, CEO of AIM Proximity commented: "We've had a long history of success in New Zealand. To discover that we are the best in the world is just amazing. We're very proud, but we'll keep working hard to keep our rankings up high, and deliver great business results for our clients."

Dave King, Creative Director of AIM Proximity added: "Winning awards is great. Winning awards for major clients like the Warehouse, Yellow and Vodafone is really satisfying, so thanks to each of these guys for letting us do the work."

This report loses all credibility with a quick scam down the list.
And do we really need all these award rankings systems?

Given the Dubai Lynx, owned by the Cannes Lions, stripped FP7 Doha of their awards, surely WON cannot now place the agency at #2 on their Q1 chart?
