The Drum World Creative Rankings for 2025 have landed, and FCB is shining bright on the global stage. With a proud #5 spot as the most awarded agency network, we’re making waves worldwide. FCB New York, FCB Chicago and FCB Canada also all landed in the top 25 most awarded agencies globally and top 10 in the Americas –– with FCB New York taking the top spot as the #1 most awarded agency in the world, Americas, and the US. These prestigious rankings celebrate the most awarded people, companies and campaigns leading the creative world, and we’re honored to be at the forefront.
The high rankings are a testament to the creative excellence across the network. FCB New York’s “Dreamcaster” for Michelob ULTRA topped the charts as #1 most awarded campaign overall, while FCB Chicago’s “Banned Book Club” for the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) came in at #5. Chicago’s “The Last Barf Bag” for Dramamine and “Runner 321” for adidas, along with New York’s “Spreadbeats” for Spotify, all secured spots in the top 25.
“Creativity is what breaks through, but collaboration is what makes the work succeed. These rankings are proof of the power of ‘the &’ in our name — creativity & collaboration, passion & perseverance, pushing & never settling,” said Andrés Ordóñez, FCB Global CCO. “Our success this year shows that “Never Finished” isn’t just something we say — it’s how we show up every day. It’s about challenging each other, taking ideas further, and proving that great creativity doesn’t just move people, it moves businesses forward. Vamos FCB!!”
“FCB’s incredible performance in The Drum World Creative Rankings is a true reflection of our people and their daily pursuit of greatness,” added Danilo Boer, FCB Global Creative Partner. “I’m in awe of our teams and their relentless drive to make the best work of their lives and deliver mind-blowing ideas that push our clients forward in entirely new ways. This achievement was only possible because, at FCB, our clients aren’t just partners –– they’re part of the team. Together, we dream big, chase the impossible, and work tirelessly to make it possible.”
FCB also earned top rankings across sectors. FCB New York’s work with Spotify and Michelob ULTRA dominated the entertainment and food & beverage categories –– taking out the #1 spot in each –– while FCB Chicago triumphed in the government and health & pharmaceuticals categories, with their work for DPLA and Dramamine coming in at #1 and #3 respectively. FCB Canada was also ranked #2 in the fashion sector for their stellar work with adidas.
We’re truly “Better Together” — and nothing without the brilliant creative minds that make it all happen. Alex Abrantes, Michael Aimette, Danilo Boer, Pieter Claeys, Sy-Jenq Cheng, Nick Farley, Vitor Hugo Favero, Bruno Mazzoti, Eduardo Tavares, Thomas Mori, Roxane Schneider, and Sara Radovanovich were all ranked in the top 10 of their respective title categories. In true “Never Finished” style, countless other creatives from Canada, Chicago, New York were also included in the rankings.
This recognition from The Drum not only highlights the momentum we’re building across the agency but also marks a defining moment of what’s possible when we push each other to new heights. This is only the beginning — and looking ahead, we’re excited to keep raising the bar, embrace new challenges, and continue to build on our success together.
