Cognito’s sustainability designs
strike double gold at the 50th ABCI National Awards

Cognito, once again dominated the national sustainability communication arena by raking in double gold and a silver at the recently held Association of Business Communicators of India (ABCI) Annual Awards.

The Cognito designed ‘L&T Sustainability Report 2009’ won Gold in the ‘Social Responsibility Communications’ category, while the ‘Sustainability Initiatives – e-mailer campaign’ designed for Mahindra won Gold in the ‘Web Communication-Online Campaign’ category. The e-zine designed for Mahindra bagged the Silver Award.

Congratulating Cognito on its achievements, Mrs. Beroz Gazdar, Vice President - Infrastructure Development Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. said, “Cognito has consciously acquired a deep understanding about 'Sustainability' as relevant in the current context. Hence besides the quality of creativity in branding and communication, the insights and responses offered by them throughout the Mahindra Sustainability journey, has been of great value. Today I see Cognito more as our Sustainability consultant than a design agency.”

Last year too Cognito had won Gold at the ABCI Awards for the Mahindra Sustainability Report.
Cognito’s Sustainability Reports have been continuously winning accolades, across the national and international landscapes. This is also the second honour for the L&T Report. Earlier in the year it had bagged two awards at the GRI Reader’s Choice awards in Amsterdam. In fact, Cognito is the only Indian organization whose sustainability reports have won at both the GRI Readers’ Choice Awards – a global voice of a wide spectrum of stakeholders/readers.

“These recognitions are a manifestation of the confidence reposed in us by progressive clients like Mahindra and L&T and the excellent teamwork between Cognito and their sustainability teams.” said Harsh Purohit, Executive Director, Cognito, India.
