Winning under the Special Events and Exhibits category, the award recognizes narzo’s efforts back in September to October 2022 for a collaborative method that involved both Metro Manila and Regional media in the brand’s drive towards a stronger nationwide presence. The Silver Anvil commends narzo “for effectively implementing an inclusive and collaborative approach to establish ties with media nationwide and extend its brand presence in key areas of the Philippines”.

From L-R: PRSP Adviser Norman Agatep; narzo Brand Representative Elaine Cruz; narzo PR Carlo Nemo; realme and narzo Marketing VP Austine Huang; Ripple8 Managing Partner Michelle Orosa-Ople; Ripple8 Account Manager Shane Torres; and PRSP VP-External Lady Ochel Espinosa.

“We are both grateful and honored to be recognized by the PRSP,” says entry proponent Carlo Nemo, narzo’s Public Relations Officer. “Our entire team dedicates this victory to our media partners for their all-out support to our then-fledgling brand, and to the Filipino everyman that fuels narzo’s mission of bringing Quality Sulit devices in the budget segment.”

The Anvil Awards is annually presented by the Public Relations Society of the Philippines (PRSP), and is considered to be the highest symbol of excellence in the field of Public Relations. This year’s Filipiniana-themed awarding ceremony, dubbed Gabi ng Parangal, was centered around the concept of “Isang Habi”, or One Weave. It was held at the Manila Marriott Hotel in Newport, Pasay City.
