In addition to this group, an international Effie Worldwide supervisor was also present, as well as CPA Ferrere for the audit process.
 
Once again this year, this important distinction for the advertising industry brought together private and public advertisers, advertising agencies, media, marketing and promotions, digital, industry institutions, media, academics and producers to celebrate together.

Marcelo Debenardi, President of Effie Uruguay 2019 said: “It is a great joy to see that today the Effie is a consolidated event in Uruguay. Proof of this was the number of cases registered, which meant a new historical record, positioning Uruguay among the markets with the best enrollment ratio per capita worldwide, which speaks of the maturity, professionalism and seriousness with which our entire industry works."

A Global Competition
Winning an Effie locally qualifies agencies and advertisers to participate directly in the global Effie Index® that Effie Worldwide has been conducting since 2011. The objective of this index is to recognize the most effective Effie-winning companies across its 55 programs globally. Several Uruguayan agencies have already achieved prominent positions in the different local and regional rankings prepared each year by Effie Worldwide.
