Ogilvy retained first place in the World Creative Rankings tables at the halfway point of 2026, alongside WPP, as revealed on July 23. This follows remarks on July 21 by Ogilvy's APAC CCO Reed Collins, who credited "best in market talent" and a "healthy competitive spirit" for the agency's continued success and strong partnership with Vaseline, following a string of recent Cannes wins. Earlier, on July 20, WPP's global chief creative officer Rob Reilly attributed WPP networks Ogilvy and VML's top spots in the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity's Network of the Year awards to their chief executives' commitment to creativity.
