ANA Multicultural Excellence Awards | ANA

Multicultural Marketing at its Finest

Since 2001, the ANA Multicultural Excellence Awards have offered the ultimate opportunity to showcase work that makes a difference and celebrate the teams that are raising the bar for our industry.

With the multicultural population in the U.S. rapidly growing, it is crucial for brands to be culturally relevant to all consumers - regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual or gender identity, or ability. Multicultural Excellence Award winners showcase insight and learning from the brands taking the strategic steps to ensure their engagement with multicultural consumer segments is relevant, creative and compelling.

The ANA Multicultural Excellence Awards program is judged by a select jury of industry leaders to select the entries that represent best-in-class examples of multicultural marketing — work that features powerful cultural insights that ultimately helps brands to effectively connect with diverse consumers.
