Mediazoo is celebrating a major milestone this year, breaking into the Top 5 of the EVCOM / Moving Image UK Top 50, while also topping the list for being the agency to recieve the most awards over the previous year. 

This year’s Top 5 ranking marks a strong upward move for Mediazoo, climbing from 6th place the year before and continuing its momentum as one of the UK’s leading learning and communications agencies. 

In 2025–26 alone, Mediazoo’s work achieved an exceptional 17 gold awards across Cannes, EVCOM, Lens and the New York Festivals, putting the agency 1st in the rankings. This achievement reflects not only the scale of the agency’s creative ambition but also the consistent excellence of its output across global productions.

Representing the team at the UK Top 50 event were Matt Pothecary and Yanitsa Spassova, who joined leading agencies and industry peers in celebrating another standout year for the UK’s moving image sector. 

Giles Smith, CEO at Mediazoo, said: “Being recognised as one of the UK’s Top 5 agencies is a fantastic achievement, but it’s our people who make it meaningful. Their creativity, curiosity and relentless commitment to doing brilliant work is what sets Mediazoo apart. 

“I’m endlessly grateful to our team, and to our clients, who continue to inspire us with the challenges they bring that allow us to drive human performance.”

“Awards are the outcome, but the real achievement is the difference our work helps create.”

Tom Copp-Ganley, Head of Creative Studio, said: “Seeing Mediazoo top the most awarded agency of the year list is a huge testament to the craft and care our creative teams put into every project. 

From producers and designers to editors and animators; our work is driven by people who push ideas further, sweat the details and constantly challenge what great looks like. 

These awards show that both our clients and our peers recognise the work that we do and I'm incredibly proud of the studio and the storytelling they bring to life.”

Mediazoo continues to build on its unique blend of storytelling, behavioural science and technology, delivering high‑quality content, transformation programmes and talent solutions that help organisations navigate change and build future skills.

With the rebrand of Finer Vision, the addition of Uncertainty Experts, and growing global work for clients including Netflix, Arsenal FC and Centrica, Mediazoo continues to scale its creative capabilities.

This latest milestone follows Mediazoo being named Video Production Company of the Year at the Lens Awards and winning Silver Learning Provider of the Year at the LPI Awards, underscoring a powerhouse year of creativity and impact.
