Three Canadian agencies won Best of Show at the 2007 Summit International Awards and a slew of others took home Gold for categories ranging from interactive media to training websites.
The Best of Show winners were: Griffiths Gibson & Ramsay Productions, Vancouver, in the Broadcast Category for Delta Irrigation; RED Communications, Edmonton, for self promotion; and Hangar 18 Creative Group of Vancouver, in the PSA category for British Columbia’s SPCA.
