Recognizing and celebrating the most brilliant and inspirational ideas in marketing communications – APPIES Asia Pacific is a festival of the best marketing ideas.

APPIES Asia Pacific is an annual event that presents a rare opportunity for creative, media, digital and marketing agencies or brands to present their best campaigns to the industry.

This year’s winners will receive Gold, Silver or Bronze trophies for 10 categories, and 7 special Best of Best categories (red trophies) that require no submissions!
