Ad Age Small Agency Awards judges announced

Ad Age Small Agency Awards judges
In honor of the tenth anniversary of the Ad Age Small Agency Awards, this year's contest will be judged by a panel that includes the top winners over the last decade.
A who's who of small agency founders, creatives and executives form the jury for the 2019 Small Agency Awards, which honor shops with 150 or fewer employees. The outside panel of jurors will be charged with evaluating work in the following categories: Campaign of the Year: Digital; Campaign of the Year: B-to-B; Campaign of the Year: Pro Bono; Campaign of the Year: Integrated and, new this year, Campaign of the Year: Experiential.
"We are delighted to have this panel of excellent judges, many of which have supported our Small Agency conference for each of the last 10 years," says Judann Pollack, Ad Age executive editor. "That proves their dedication to the business, their peers and their craft."
