Wieden + Kennedy is Campaign magazine's network of the year 2010.

They say W+K ‘touched a global popular culture nerve in 2010 like no other. Wieden + Kennedy, the one time quirky alternative to the big shops, made its clients Nike and Old Spice the world’s most viral brands this year. The micro-network demonstrated true creative excellence and left bigger, older rivals in the shade.’

In other W+K-related news from Campaign, Nike ‘Write the Future’ was named campaign of the year.

“Only one brand won this year’s FIFA World Cup and that was Nike. This was thanks to a three minute film that mixed fantasy with football to such a degree that it became a global phenomenon and trounced rivals such as adidas in terms of positioning.”

Nike also got best poster of the year and 2^nd best TV ad of the year. One of our Honda press ads was named best regional press ad of the year and Nike Grid got number 6 in the ‘best poster’ charts while Lurpak ‘Pride’ was number 9. Nike Grid was also number 3 in best digital campaigns.  Old Spice and Nike were numbers 1 and 2 in top 10 virals.

Great results. Big congratulations to all!
