Each year, the American Advertising Federation holds the American Advertising Awards (ADDYs), the advertising industry’s largest and most representative competition. This year, our local Toledo chapter’s event was held at the Valentine Theatre on Thursday, February 20, and we’re thrilled to announce that one of our client partners was among the celebrated winners!

Battelle, a global research and development organization headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, committed to science and technology for the greater good, won a Gold ADDY Award for their 90th Anniversary Microsite. We collaborated with Battelle’s Marketing and Communication teams on this microsite to celebrate Battelle’s rich history translating scientific discovery and technological advances into societal benefits.

In addition, Battelle won a Silver ADDY Award for their 90 Years of Innovation video that brings their history to life.
