The 15th Annual Hermes Creative Awards has come and gone, and Texas’ most-awarded B2B agency has come home with an astounding 22 awards­­—the most in the agency’s history.

The Hermes Creative Awards is an international competition that honors the creative industry’s best publications, branding, collateral, websites, and videos, as well as advertising, marketing, and communications programs. It is one of the oldest and largest creative competitions in the world. Last year, Spire received nine awards from Hermes at the 14th Annual Competition.

This year’s 22 creative awards for Spire consisted of eight Platinum, nine Gold, and five Honorable Mentions, spanning six different agency clients. The awards came from a variety of categories, including logo design, collateral, videos, annual reports, and integrated campaigns.

  • TrinityRail – 7 Awards (6 Platinum, 1 Honorable Mention)
  • Howard Hughes – 4 Awards (1 Platinum, 3 Gold)
  • Global Semiconductor Alliance – 3 Awards (1 Gold, 2 Honorable Mention)
  • ClearShift – 3 Awards (3 Gold)
  • Payer Compass – 2 Awards (2 Gold)
  • Spire – 2 Awards (1 Platinum, 1 Honorable Mention)
  • Aerial – 1 Award (Honorable Mention)


“A record year at the Hermes Awards continues a record year for our B2B branding agency,” said Jason James, Associate Creative Director. “Winning 22 awards is amazing for our creative team, but winning for six different clients is the real headline here.”

Hermes Creative Awards is administered and judged by the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals. It has over 300 categories with entrants across the entire globe. The AMCP has coordinated and judged the awards for more than 20 years. Entrants contend for Platinum and Gold statuettes—wings from the mythological Hermes’ cap and sandals elegantly etched to evoke the shape of the letter H.
