One Show is a coveted award amongst the advertising fraternity. And the same extends to the Indian Interactive agencies. This year G2 (the interactive arm of Grey Worldwide) and Leo Burnett, Mumbai have been listed as finalists for the 2009 One Show Interactive awards.

one_show_logoThe G2 AIDS creative which DigiMouth had reviewed was even a finalist at this years Goafest. It looks like G2 is back with a bang. The creative listed as finalist in the E-mail Marketing category. On the other hand Leo Burnett India, Mumbai got listed in the banner innovation category for their Luxor Highlighters campaign. The same interactive campaign won a bronze in the Cyber Lion category at Cannes 2008. The irony is that Arc Worldwide is the interactive and activation wing of Leo Burnett and has executed the Luxor campaign. But there is no mention of the Arc team in both the awards.

Anyway the Webby finalists will be announced tomorrow. Let’s hope to see some more Indian online / interactive agencies on international awards listings.
