The Weber Shandwick Collective was named Global Agency of the Year at the 2023 Global SABRE Awards, which took place in Washington DC last night. 

As the only large PR consultancy to receive finalist nominations in PRovoke Media's Regional Consultancy of the Year category across North America, EMEA and Asia-Pacific, the Interpublic Group agency prevailed over multinational PR firms BCW, Edelman, FleishmanHillard and H+K Strategies.

Weber Shandwick submitted a well-rounded performance across the three regions, underpinned by impressive creative work and a focus on solving at the intersections of such critical issues as geopolitics, brand activism, health and wellness and technological development. 

Weber Shandwick was one of seven agencies to win Global Agency of the Year recognition from a shortlist of 35 firms, drawn from our Agency of the Year honorees in North America, EMEA, Asia-Pacific and LatAm. Full analysis of all winners can be found here or below.
