We want to be able to continue to offer the best innovative practices, campaigns, and technology to both our partners and our audiences and position ABS-CBN as a credible partner when it comes to digital advertising and digital marketing. This award validates our work as a team, and inspires me to do more and give the best to my team, the organization, and our audiences,” she said.
