Celebrating big wins at the Independent Agency Awards

Last week, the Bind Media team had the pleasure of attending one of the most exciting events in the marketing calendar: MAD//FEST London 2025. 

Our own Co-Founder,  Eliot, and Senior Brand Marketing Executive, Maddie, were on the ground representing Bind Media, and the day was nothing short of unforgettable.

A night to remember: The Independent Agency Awards

As we joined the Independent Agency Awards, hosted by the Alliance of Independent Agencies, we couldn't be more proud to share that Bind Media walked away with three incredible recognitions:

🏆 Winner – Freedom Award for Client Services
 This award means so much to our team. It recognises outstanding client service, something we prioritise deeply in every relationship we build. Winning this category is a reflection of the trust our clients place in us, and the hard work our team puts in behind the scenes every single day.

Watch what the judges has to say below:

🏅 Highly Commended – Best Use of Google Media
 Our strategic use of Google Media platforms is a cornerstone of the results we deliver. Being recognised here validates the creativity and performance-driven mindset we bring to our paid media campaigns.

⭐ Shortlisted – Independent Agency of the Year
 While we didn’t take home the top prize this time, being one of just four agencies in the entire UK to be shortlisted is a huge honour in itself. 

Congratulations to PrettyGreen on the well-deserved win!

What’s next?

These awards and experiences are a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come—and how much more we want to achieve. Thank you once again to the Alliance of Independent Agencies for the recognition and to everyone who helped make the event so memorable. Until next year!
