2021 was FERLING's most successful year

It has been an integral part of the business policy of our PR agency for many years to regularly compete in various professional competitions. We believe that by working with our customers, we are able to put quality solutions on the table that not only help us solve the communication challenges, but also stand out in the national and international field.

For the first time in almost a decade, we won the Sándor Imre Prize, the number one award of the Hungarian PR Association. This was followed by many more, from the fields of PR, design and web, but no year so far has been as rich in accolades as this year.

The most important success is certainly the International Public Relations Association's (IPRA) Golden World Award in the "Digital creativity" category, which we earned with the University of Pécs' extraordinary enrollment campaign. The special situation due to the pandemic and the closures required new ideas and new, exclusively digital solutions, as there were no opportunities for personal contact, open days or events at all. The university’s enrollment numbers confirmed that the online PTE Culture Festival, the new mobile app, and other campaign elements were on target. The first international professional award in the history of our PR agency was awarded to the project.

This year we were one of the main actors at the year-end gala of the Hungarian PR Association. We brought home four of the PR Excellence Awards, to Pécs: PTE's campaign received a gold award in the Issue management category, while Körber's digital communication tools for employees received a gold award from the jury in the internal communication category. the grand prize for the whole evening and even the audience prize.

In the CSR DoingGood competition announced by Kreatív magazine, we won a special mention a special prize for the green efforts of Duna-Dráva Cement. For decades, the company has been striving to protect the environment and shape the attitudes of local communities around its factories in Beremend and Vác, in which our PR agency is the number one communication partner.

Finally, a less professional but extremely valuable and positive evaluation of the work we do is the Business Superbrands and the Business Ethics Award. Both can be said to be owned by very few companies whose exemplary practices in everyday life are recognized by members of the jury. That is why we are especially proud of them, as they send a clear message to our existing and future partners: they can trust us, they can count on us.
