David&Goliath Wins Gold at Ad Age & Creativity's 2011 Small Agency Conference and Awards Show

LA-Based Creative Shop Wins Small Agency of the Year, 76-150 Employees


LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - Jul 29, 2011) - David&Goliath (www.dng.com) won the Gold Award, 76 to 150 employees, at Ad Age's Small Agency Awards show for 2011. The award was accepted by David Angelo, Founder and Chief Creative Officer at David&Goliath (D&G), last night at the show in Denver. Judges this year had to sort not only from hundreds of entries from the U.S. and Canada, but entries from 20 other countries as well.

D&G was selected for this honor based on account wins, agency management, creative excellence and strategy. Ad Age recognized D&G for its epic Super Bowl ads for Kia, brand rebuilding work for the Monte Carlo hotel in Las Vegas and its events and stunts for the reopening of the King Kong Ride at Universal Studios that "picked up enough real-world news coverage to give journalism-ethics professors fits."

"This is a tremendous honor for David&Goliath," said David Angelo. "As an agency we continue to service our clients and deliver the right solutions for their businesses. This past year has lived up to all of our expectations, a testament to our hard work and our BRAVE philosophy. It is truly rewarding to be recognized in this way by our peers and the Ad Age editorial team."

Year-over-year D&G has grown through new business wins of the California Lottery and CKE Carl's Jr. /Hardee's accounts. The agency also had a big year with Kia. The Kia Soul campaign was awarded a Gold EFFIE for "This or That," as well as the Nielsen Automotive Ad of the Year award for the second year in a row.
