The Adweek Agency of the Year 2023 winners have finally been crowned.

Adweek’s editorial team combed through over 100 entries to ultimately choose seven winners. Jameson Fleming, Adweek’s managing editor, marketing and agencies, led the process and juries for each category.

This week on the podcast, he joins community editor, Luz Corona, and Europe brands editor, Rebecca Stewart, to discuss the selection process, as well as what makes a winning agency and the one piece of advice he’d give to any shop hoping to make the cut in 2024.

Fleming also discusses the anatomical, eye-catching cover designed by GUT, which scored a double whammy this year; taking home Breakthrough Agency of the Year and its Buenos Aires office won International Agency of the Year.
