The Moroccan agencies TNC-thenext.click, Mediamatic, and Gear9, known for their expertise in creating 360° experiences both in Morocco and internationally, have impressively won 8 awards across various categories.
These accolades highlight the expertise and diverse skill sets within the group and were presented at two events: the Impériales 2023 and the International e-marketing and e-commerce Fair, as stated in a press release.
During the "Les Etoiles" awards ceremony held on Friday, May 13, at the Carré d’Or in Casablanca, which concluded the “Les Impériales” event, the agency group was recognized for its skills in marketing, communication, media, technology, and digital strategies.
This sixth edition of “Les Impériales,” held under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, had the theme “Breaking Boundaries” and honored individuals and organizations that stood out for their creativity, professionalism, and commitment to the Kingdom's ecosystem throughout 2022.
The awards for the International e-marketing and e-commerce Fair took place on Thursday, May 12, at the Hyatt Regency Casablanca, following a record turnout of 20,000 attendees for this new edition.
“Winning eight awards in just 24 hours, the TNC-thenext.click, Mediamatic, and Gear9 agencies have distinguished themselves as major players in the industry.
