-- McCann Health, winning a Gold and 4 Bronze awards,

New York City Tuesday night,
reports Jeremy Perrott, Global
Creative Director for McCann Health.
Comments Jeremy: "One thousand entries in this year's
Clio Healthcare Awards from around the world made for a very strong
show. We are only recognizing the 'metal' winners - being
deliberately tough on ourselves, raising our own standards as we
strive to be the best in our industry.
"This year we have had a very encouraging result. Only 6 Gold
awards in the whole show and we won one of them. Then 4 Bronze
statues.
"Congratulations to all agencies who won finalists and a huge
hand for the state winners.
"These awards are becoming more and more difficult to win as the
global standard becomes higher and higher. A direct result from the
brilliant work being produced.
"Please congratulate:
- McCann Torre Lazur London: Gold
for its brilliant Erbitux film, and two Bronze statues– one for
Cancer Screening and the other for Mundipharma.
- McCann HumanCare NY: a Bronze for Tradjenta.
- And McCann Health Sydney: a Bronze for innovative development
and use of our corporate business card.
"A fantastic result."
McCann Health CEO John
Cahill said: "This success further cements McCann
Health's position as the most creatively awarded network agency in
health and wellness worldwide."
Phil Bartlett, Managing
Director of McCann Health London added: "We're extremely proud
of our achievements here - these awards show that we're doing the
right things in the right ways, following through our creative
vision from planning right through to production. The team here
never stop pushing themselves and each other to bigger and better
things and are a credit to the agency and the network."
Andrew Schirmer, Managing
Director of McCann HumanCare, said: "When trying to support
people with type 2 diabetes, it is critical to engage and entertain

first-person voice made this approach to patient education perfect
for this brand, the client and obviously the Clio judges as this
was the only winner in the Online Video category."
