Wieden + Kennedy被美国商业期刊Advertising Age 和 Creativity评为年度最佳机构。
Wieden + Kennedy has been named Agency of the Year by key US trade mags Advertising Age and Creativity.
“For the first time, Ad Age and Creativity are honoring the same top shop. And for good reason. When it came to bold idea-making and strong execution, nobody did it like this Portland, ore.-based stalwart. Couple that with its newfound mettle in building strong client bonds and it won the business case, too.”
Advertising Age和Creativity第一次把第一名都给同一家机构，而且理由给的也很充分。说到大胆创新和强大的执行力，没有别的机构能比的上位于波特兰的W+K了。他们与客户建立稳定的关系，也赢来了商业案例。
Creativity said:
“Creativity considers all agency types in its agency of the year selection process — digital, full service and everything in between — so only one top agency emerges from that multidisciplinary pile. But no agency can win without demonstrating a “digital” mindset in its work, and an overall fitness to thrive in a digital world. Wieden simply represented the best all-round agency, one that happened to distinguish itself by having the best digital campaign of the year.”
Creativity考虑了各种行业类型的机构，但只有一家符合的要求：数码和多领域。没有在工作中刻意的展示“数码”心态，但却能在数码世界中如鱼得水，这一点只有全能的W+K简单地做到了，仅凭如此得到了年度最佳数码营销奖。
These latest accolades come on top of what was a pretty amazing 2010 for W+K in terms of Agency and Campaign of the Year-type things. There’s no way to list this stuff without sounding like a bunch of smug gits, but here goes:

Creativity也引用了Dan Wieden的话：
Creativity quotes founder Dan Wieden as follows:
在每家公司，你都会有那么一段思考期，这和过去的好日子不一样。但是，过去的好日子再好也比不上过去的那一年。
“In any company you go through a period of thinking, this is not like the good old days,” Mr. Wieden said. “Well, the good old days were never as good as this last year.”
