Says Matt Boss, ANZ managing director products & marketing: “We’re very pleased that this flagship campaign celebrating diversity, inclusion and respect has been recognised at such a prestigious event, particularly considering the global brands that were also shortlisted.

“Being only one of a handful of Australian companies to be awarded a Grand Prix award is testament to both the talented marketers we have here at ANZ and our creative agencies led by Whybin/TBWA.”

“This was the first time we’ve exclusively used social channels to engage with our customers and the response was overwhelming with more than 17 million people globally exposed to GAYTMs via social channels such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.”
