Mindshare has received the highest number of nominations for the 2012 Media Federation Awards, with eight chances of taking home a gong.
In total, 46 finalists are battling it out for 15 awards.
OMD recieved six nods - with one for OMD Fuse - while Naked Communications was shortlisted five times.
Media Federation Awards chairman and Bohemia group managing partner Brett Dawson said: “As usual, the standard of entries was extremely high, which led to intense debate for the judges in choosing finalists and winners.
“It’s encouraging to see the high level of strategic thinking, effective solutions to complex problems and use of new technologies in the Australian media agency industry. We look forward to revealing the very worthy winners next month.”
The winners of the awards will be revealed at a ceremony in Sydney on 27 September.
