The Agency of the Year recognition marks COMCO Mundo’s compelling presence and seal of excellence, not just in the Asia-Pacific region, but also across the world as it continues to work with local and international brands and projects with its own unique brand of #MeaningfulStorytelling. The Gold Quill Awards’ “Agency of the Year” honor is given to agencies with the highest-rated entries making these top organizations the Global Best of the Best and Special Award Winners. Since the Gold Quill Awards’ inception in 2008, this is the first time that a Filipino and Southeast Asian agency won the much sought-after award in the industry. 

COMCO is also the most awarded organization in the Philippines and the Asia-Pacific at the Gold Quill Awards 2024 receiving recognitions in Corporate Social Responsibility and Climate Change and Sustainability Communication for “Save Our Planet, Save Our Seas – The Century Tuna “Saving Our Seas” Initiative”, in Digital Communication and Social Media for “UNMASKED: The COMCO Mundo Write to Ignite Initiative Season 3”, and in Communication Training and Education for “Igniting Talent – The Camp COMCO Mentorship Program”.

“A long time ago, we had a dream. And the dream was for us to stand tall on the world stage together with other fellow communicators from all the different countries,” said Philippine Chair of the IABC Gold Quill Awards’ Blue Ribbon Panel, IABC Philippines Adviser, and IABC Fellow, Ms. Ritzi Villarico-Ronquillo, APR. “Tonight, the dream, years ago, is not just a dream. COMCO made it a reality. Not only for every Filipino communicator but also for our country and for the next generation. So beyond the trophy, the crusade has started. We must stand tall with our colleagues across the globe. We must show them just how Pinoys can really be excellent.”

The USA-headquartered IABC is a global network of communication professionals that recognizes the best practices and innovative campaigns of agencies, companies, and brands that foster excellence in the field of communications through the Gold Quill Awards.
