The One Club Opens 2023 ONE Asia Creative Awards Call for Entries

Jun. 28, 2023

With the theme "the best of the region, on display to the world", The One Club for Creativity has opened the call for entries for the 2023 ONE Asia Creative Awards, celebrating excellence in creativity throughout all of Asia Pacific.

After seven years of running The One Show Greater China, the club expanded the scope of the awards in 2021 as ONE Asia to include all of Asia Pacific. Entries were received last year from 19 countries and regions in APAC, with winners representing 14.  

Eligible countries and regions for ONE Asia are: Australia, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, mainland China, East Timor, Hong Kong-SAR, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Laos, Macau-SAR, Malaysia, Maldives, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, New Zealand, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan-China, Thailand, and Vietnam.

Entry fees for ONE Asia 2023 increase after each deadline period. Early entry deadline is July 28, 2023, with the regular deadline August 31, 2023, extended deadline September 8, 2023, and final dealing September 15, 2023.

A significant element of ONE Asia is that points for winners are included in The One Club’s renowned Global Creative Rankings. ONE Asia awards won by agencies and brands will now gain them international recognition in their own right, and contribute to regional and global network and holding company rankings totals.  

New this year for ONE Asia:

• Separate new disciplines for IP & Product Design, and Creative Use of Data.
• Print & Out of Home is now split into two disciplines: Print & Promotional, and Out of Home; both include a category for Craft.
• A new discipline for Innovation, and Innovation categories added to each discipline
• Digital Craft discipline is now Interactive & Mobile Craft, with additional categories.
• Film & Video Craft discipline is now Moving Image Craft & Production, with additional categories

Juries will be announced shortly.  First round pre-judging will be done online at the end of September, and final in-person judging in Shanghai takes place in October.  Finalists will be announced in November, with Gold, Silver and Bronze winners will be announced in December.

Kevin Swanepoel, CEO, The One Club said:

"From Manila to Mumbai and Shanghai to Sydney, ONE Asia celebrates the best of creativity throughout Asia-Pacific. APAC produces some amazing creative work, and it’s through ONE Asia that the world will experience it."

 

The One Club Greater China office was founded in 2000, hosting a series of youth events in China, and later The One Show Greater China Awards and related Creative Week programming.  In the past 23 years, The One Club team based in Shanghai has focused on promoting creativity in the APAC region, and greater communications between Greater China and the global industry.
