Spain has finished its journey in the Epica Awards, where MarketingDirecto.com has taken part as a jury, with 3 awards in the suitcase.
After the jury of the Epica Awards (composed solely and exclusively by journalists) met last Tuesday in Brussels to deliberate on the campaigns deserving of the most traditional awards in this contest, the Grand Prix, the festival celebrated yesterday online its awards ceremony.
Spanish agencies have lowered the curtain on this event, in which MarketingDirecto.com has taken part as a jury, with 3 awards in the suitcase (compared to 6 in 2022).
