Klick Health Nabs 32 Clio Health Awards, Named "Independent Agency of the Year"
Pencils and Towers and Cubes, oh my! Klick Health proudly accepted its 85th global creative accolade at last night's Clio Health Awards, taking home 31 honors, including "Independent Agency of the Year," two Grands, nine Golds, 10 Silvers, five Bronzes, and four Shortlists. In addition, Executive Creative Producer Laura Denham was named a 2023 Clio Health Innovator.
The large, global health agency has been earning top honors this spring at the world's most prestigious advertising contests, including D&AD, The One Show, ADC, New York Festivals Health, Webbys, ANDYs, and the Clio Awards.
"Our goal isn't just to do great work in health, but to do great work ? period. To see our campaigns recognized with some of the world's most respected health and mainstream creative awards is further proof that health is playing a larger part in people's everyday lives," said Klick Health Chief Creative Officer Rich Levy. "We are proud and humbled to help lead the way in raising the creative bar and championing work that leads to more positive health awareness and outcomes."
"The Bridge," Klick's animated short created for the non-profit PAWS NY, was awarded the Clio Health Grand in Film Craft, along with three Gold, three Silver, and one Bronze. The film's innovative animation style and heartwarming story about a man struggling with his mental health and, in parallel, a dog abandoned on the streets of New York have inspired film festivals and jurors around the world to award it top honors. "The Bridge" has been recognized on the film festival circuit with accolades including Best Animation Cinematography and Best Song at the New York Cinematography Awards. Among its many ad awards are two Graphite and two Wood Pencils at D&AD, four Gold Pencils at The One Show, five Gold Cubes at ADC, the Grand Tower and two Golds at New York Festivals Health, a Webby, a Gold ANDY, and two Gold Clio Awards.
Lifesaving Radio, the world's first AI-powered healthcare radio station Klick created for NextMed Health to help enhance surgical performance, has been a fan-favorite since its March 2023 launch. Last night, it won the Clio Health Grand in Radio, along with two Gold, one Bronze, and two Shortlists.
