MUMBAI: Just after triumphing as Agency of the Year at the Delhi Ad Club awards, Leo Burnett's Delhi office has got another feather in its cap. the agency's copy group head Rondeep Gogoi and art director Sumonto Ghosh have been selected to attend the FutureGold: Young Creative Portfolio Review workshop at this year's Clio Festival in Miami's South Beach.
Only six teams from across the world were to be selected for this workshop, and the two young creatives from Delhi were "amazed, or rather blown when we got the news." Clio will be also sponsoring stay and passes for the festival.
"I feel it is a really big opportunity to fly the Burnett India flag not just nationally, but internationally. And I assure you, we will give it our very best shot," said Gogoi.
"Both Rondeep and Sumonto are young, talented new age creatives full of ideas. They are always focused in creating award-winning campaigns for the brands they work on. They have both been recognized by Campaign Brief Asia as two of the hottest creatives and their work has been recognized within the Leo Burnett network and at major advertising festivals. I am very proud and extremely happy that they are getting this great exposure," added Leo Burnett Delhi creative director Rupam Borah.
Gogoi has been with Leo Burnett for the last four years. His current portfolio is Benetton, Godfrey Philips, McDonald's, Coca-Cola, Le Bon, Chanakya Cinema. Some of the major awards he has won are Merit at One Show for Sanctuary Asia Tiger Graph, Grand Prix at AAAI for the same, Outdoor Bronze at AAAI for Benetton Eye Chart and Outdoor Silver for McDonald's Helmet. His campaigns have been featured in Luerzer's Archive.
Ghosh, on the other hand, joined Leo Burnett two years ago and handles McDonald's, Coca-Cola, Godfrey Philips, Le Bon and Chanakya Cinema. His major achievements include a campaign for Tide featured in Work’04, winning a New York Festival Merit for Samujh Physio (Black Calendar), Press Campaign Silver at AAAI for Tide and a Tide campaign featured in Luerzer’s Archive.
This is the most recent addition in the long list of successes Leo Burnett Delhi enjoyed throughout the last one year - Bronze at Cannes, Silver at Ad-fest, Gold at Abby, 13 awards at AAAI, Agency of the Year at the Delhi Ad Club Awards (18 awards).
