Your Majesty — 10 things
April 5th · Issue #302

Hey ,

First up, some exciting news... 

The Webby Award nominees were just announced and we’re proud to have two Nominees and one Honoree in the "academy awards" of the web.

🪙Our work with Azteco was honored in the Responsible Innovation category. 

🦑 Last year we helped BBH USA ship the brilliant "The Price of Morals" Campaign for Netflix’s- Squid Game: The Challenge launch. 

It’s nominated in the following categories:
🏅 Best in Media & Entertainment
🏅 Best Use of Data-Driven Media 

We’d appreciate your (moral) support and votes for the project over the next couple of weeks. Congratulations to all the knights involved in both projects – it’s brilliant to get industry recognition for their hard work! 

And with that, we’ll leave you with our 10 links of the week…
