CARMA Wins Ten Awards at the prestigious AMEC Awards 2022

The leading global media intelligence firm was recognised for their work in PR and communications measurement with HSBC, Honda, Dubai Police and Tourism Ireland

Singapore, 22 November 2022 – CARMA won three gold, three silver, and four bronze awards amounting to ten wins at the prestigious AMEC Global Communications Effectiveness Awards 2022. The leading media intelligence firm was recognised for its global work in partnership with automotive client Honda, banking institution HSBC, Dubai Police and Tourism Ireland.

Notable highlights included four awards in a single category – the ‘step change award’ for the best improvement of a measurement journey – where CARMA took home two golds with HSBC and Honda, and two silvers with Dubai Police and Tourism Ireland. CARMA also won a gold award in the ‘best multi-market reporting’ category with HSBC across Europe, Asia and the Americas.

Richard Bagnall, CARMA’s Co-Managing Partner and CEO of Europe and the Americas, said, “These awards are a testament to the wonderful year we’ve had, partnering with ambitious companies who are all blazing a trail in PR and communications measurement. We are fortunate to work with our client partners across a variety of sectors pushing the needle in PR and who want to strategically demonstrate the impact of their amazing work in a meaningful manner.”

In addition to the main category awards, AMEC each year bestows its highest honor, the Don Bartholomew Award, to an individual for outstanding service to the communications measurement and evaluation industry. This year marked a doubly special moment for CARMA as Bagnall was named winner of this award for his leadership and achievements in raising the standards of PR measurement and evaluation in the industry.

Mazen Nahawi, Co-Managing Partner and Group CEO at CARMA, commented on Bagnall’s win, “This is AMEC’s most distinguished individual award and an incredibly well-deserved recognition for Richard. I am full of praise for his meaningful contribution to our clients and for the PR industry as a whole on a global level.”

The AMEC awards are a 20-year-old global awards program, held in London, that recognize and celebrate exceptional work. They showcase the importance of research, measurement, insights and analytics in PR and communications.
