The IAA India Chapter bestowed the prestigious 'Media Person of the Year' award on Punit Goenka, MD and CEO, Zee Entertainment Enterprises, as Lowe Lintas' chairman and chief creative officer R Balki bagged the 'Creative Agency Head of the Year' award.
Sashi Sinha, CEO, IPG Mediabrands India, won the Media Agency Head of the Year title.
Reminiscing, Sinha said that 2013 was a year of triumph for the company. However, in comparison, 2014 will be a tough year if the economy doesn't grow.
Expressing similar concern, Goenka said the upcoming General Elections will make this year far tougher than 2013. However, he was confident that the company was prepared for any outcome.
In his acceptance speech, Goenka said, "This award is a result of the valuable lessons learnt from our chairman, Mr. Subhash Chandra and of the innovative approach taken by the entire team at ZEE."
Meanwhile, Balki said the award came as a surprise, since he "didn't know when IAA had chosen him". Balki believed that every year was a good year for the agency and thought "award is just a one night drink and you move on".
HUL's Nitin Paranjpe won the 'CEO of the Year' award as Times Now's Arnab Goswami was awarded 'News Anchor of the Year'.
The second edition of the IAA Leadership Awards established by the International Advertising Association's (IAA) India chapter took place on March 1 in Mumbai.
