"Looking beyond the challenges of the past two years, we're tremendously grateful to the Clios for honoring our relentlessly passionate team. We're fortunate to do what we do, and we are humbled to do it alongside the best people in the business. I can think of no better way to celebrate the beginning of our tenth year than bringing home the 'Agency of the Year' honors again. Thank you Clios, thank you to our clients for collaborating with such generosity and thank you to all our colleagues across the industry for raising the bar — we share this moment of joy with you all."
