On May 17, 2013, the XIII version of the ELITE AWARDS was held, traditionally organized by the Faculty of Marketing and Advertising of the UDES University of Santander. The organization has made history in the region by highlighting the best of the creative work of the students of its faculty. Traditionally, the awards are used to measure talents and as training for those who take their first steps in the competitive world of advertising, proof of this is that today many of the winners of previous versions are already talented creatives in various agencies, even some of them in multinational companies from Bogotá.
The surprise began from the moment we were invited to the ceremony that took place in the imposing auditorium of the headquarters of the metropolitan aqueduct of Bucaramanga, between us we wondered what it could be about but we could not really imagine what it was about.
In the middle of the ceremony, Germán Augusto Quintero dean of the faculty spoke to the audience of a special recognition that they wanted to give to PVSAGENCIA, from the words to a video that they prepared with images of our work and some photographs of the creative team, in that At the moment we were more than excited, the delivery of this award or special recognition had no precedent in the history of the awards.
They invited us to come and receive it, no one had prepared words, in fact, no one knew what to say, by the way if someone has a video record, we would appreciate it if it arrived, I think it would be a very funny video that we could introduce to make it viral quickly on YouTube.
Thank you very much UDES people, thank you Germán, we did not know each other and we really appreciate that you noticed our work, thanks to Maria Eugenia Largo, a good friend that we have known for a long time. Very proud to be recognized by the academy, by the UDES neither more nor less, which has been forging the creative ideals of people as valuable to the environment as Palomo and Lupas among other talented creatives who passed through our agency and who today from Bogotá.
They already have nearly every award on their shelf including the coveted Cannes Lion. Proud to be the first agency to receive this recognition and proud of the work that is appreciated and valued not only from the perspective of our clients.
