Awards
AWARD: Silver Davey Award for the new RKCO.com website from the International Academy of the Visual Arts. DESCRIPTION: The Davey Awards celebrate small firms with big ideas and are the largest and most prestigious awards competition exclusively for the "Davids" of creativity. David defeated the giant Goliath with a big idea and a little rock - the sort of thing small firms do each year. The annual International Davey Awards honors the achievements of the "Creative Davids" who derive their strength from big ideas, rather than stratospheric budgets. The Davey Awards may be for smaller organizations, but the judges have big reputations. The Davey is sanctioned and judged by the International Academy of the Visual Arts, an invitation-only body consisting of top-tier professionals from a "Who's Who" of acclaimed media, advertising, and marketing firms.
