Winning at Spikes Asia felt like waking up famous — but behind it are years of hard work. Two Grand Prix prove that all barriers are only in our minds. With passion and perseverance, anyone can create world-class work — no matter where they are. Our region’s creative energy is real, and it's only just beginning!

Coming from Pakistan, where pushing for award-winning work is an uphill climb, being shortlisted at Spikes Asia as an independent agency is a huge moment. It proves that creative ambition knows no borders. It shows other indie agencies from emerging markets that their work deserves to be on the biggest stages too — if they just keep pushing.

What I like about Spikes is the cultural context it brings; the region has so many cultures and it is amazing to see the variety of work that you get.
