I’m massively proud of the Refinitiv team, whose entry has now won four times this year on the back of six nominations—a 66% nomination-to-win rate, no mean feat.

As always, a testament to our incredible clients and, of course, the amazing people that make The Media Image what it is!” — Alistair Albers, Managing Partner
