The pioneer award show globally that honors creative and effective brands with purpose, the APAC Tambuli Awards celebrates brands that show the seamless integration of creativity + purpose + results. Case study entries must demonstrate how brands uplift society, create positive change, and correlate purpose with purchase. The call for entries is now open for the awards.

The APAC Tambuli Awards is not an award on charity, advocacy, pro bono, or CSR advertising, even if those campaigns are welcome and encouraged to enter. The award, however, focuses on mainstream brand campaigns that celebrate humanity, inspire purpose, and deliver results.

Ronald Ng (pictured above) comments, “I’m absolutely honored to head the APAC Tambuli Jury. In this moment where people are aligning their purchase choices with the values of the brands they consume more than ever before, we’re looking forward to celebrating businesses that thrive when they intersect creativity, purpose and business.”

Ng leads the global creative charge across Isobar’s 85 offices in 45 markets. The Isobar creative force is core to this 6,500 strong network that’s at the forefront of experience-led transformation, creative commerce and innovation. Based in New York, Ng also partners with US creative leaders to drive the creative output across the 5 US offices.

 

Prior to joining Isobar, he was Global Chief Creative Officer of Digitas. During his tenure of almost four years, Digitas transformed its creative offering winning the 2017 Cannes Creative Data Grand Prix and WARC Marketing Effectiveness Grand Prix. In the 2017 Cannes Lions Global Creativity Report, Digitas was ranked No. 1 ‘Innovation Agency of the Year’ and No. 1 in ‘Creative Data’. And in the 2018 WARC 100 Report, Digitas was ranked No. 1 Digital Agency in the World.

Before Digitas, Ng was CCO and EVP/ECD of BBDO/Proximity in Malaysia, New York and Singapore. Under his leadership, the Malaysia and Singapore offices rose to No. 13 (2008), No. 8 (2009) and No. 11 (2014) most awarded globally, according to the Gunn and Won Reports. In the same reports, he was ranked No.4 (2009) and No.6 (2014) most awarded Chief Creative Officer in the world. His work has been accepted into the Museum of Modern Arts’s (MOMA) permanent collection and the 2014 Clio Hall of Fame.
