Dentsu Indonesia’s success at Citra Pariwara is not unprecedented. In 2022, the agency made history by becoming the first and only to take pole position across all three of the most coveted titles of Creative Agency of the Year, Digital Agency of the Year, and Media Agency of the Year, along with the ultimate distinction of Agency of the Year, a never-before haul recorded at Citra Pariwara since the inaugural awards in 1987. The network delivered a strong showcase the following year in 2023, bagging 20 metals as it retained its title as #1 Media Agency of the Year alongside its wins as #2 Creative Agency of the Year and #2 Digital Agency of the Year.
This unparalled recognition at Citra Pariwara adds to dentsu Indonesia’s string of achievements in 2024. Over the year, the agency has also garnered 18 awards at the MMA Smarties Indonesia, 30 trophies at the Marketing Excellence Awards Indonesia, and has maintained its position as the No. 1 agency in RECMA’s Quali-Rank for five consecutive years.
