The insights from this initiative reinforce the importance of recognizing creative excellence within in-house teams.
Gerety Cofounder Lucía Ongay says, “We are thrilled to partner with The Industry Club again who have a proven record of supporting in-house agencies. This special prize, just like the agency and network of the year awards, will spotlight the world’s most creative In-House Agency”

Commenting on this brand new award that will be presented to the winning agency by The Industry Club, its Founder and Managing Director Melissa Smith explained: “In-house agencies continue to push the boundaries of creativity while navigating the unique challenges of operating within a brand. The In-House Agency of the Year award is a well-deserved recognition of their innovation, impact, and growing influence in the industry. We are proud to partner with Gerety once again to shine a spotlight on the exceptional talent within these teams and celebrate their contributions to the creative landscape.”
