BWZ CEO Ben Aston Awarded “Leader Of The Year” In 2022 Digiday Awards
One of the most influential in the digital media industry, the Digiday Award programs are dedicated to recognizing innovation, creativity and excellence.
Dec 8th, 2022. Vancouver, British Columbia: The annual Digiday Awards winners have just been announced, honoring BWZ CEO Ben Aston as the 2022 Leader Of The Year.
Considered to be one of the most influential in the digital media industry, the Digiday Award programs are dedicated to recognizing innovation, creativity and excellence in the fields of publishing, content marketing, advertising, advertising technology and video.
Ranking among other award category winners including Coca-Cola, Edelman, and Tropicana, Aston’s recognition as Leader Of The Year celebrates his major accomplishments with the BWZ media tech company throughout the previous year: the company’s $3.6M acquisition of Crozdesk, the launch of a B2B vendor portal and multi-site platform build, and team growth from 8 to 25 full-time employees. This culminated in a tripling in revenue which enabled the company to donate 4% of profit to charity.
“I’m grateful to be recognized with this award,” says Aston. “I feel lucky to lead this company and very proud of what we’ve accomplished as a team. I could not have accomplished any of this on my own, so this award is as much for the team as it is for me.”
