The Purple Boomerang – presented by Investing in Women (IW) – An Initiative of the Australian Government – awarded to the most impactful, brand-led commercial campaign that bravely challenges gender stereotypes by normalizing women’s role in workplaces, men’s role in the home, and equal sharing of caring and economic roles across genders.

Since 2008, the Boomerang Awards have set the standard for the country’s digital marketing practice. This year’s theme, aptly called “Boom!” points towards the pauses and leaps that the industry have witnessed in the past two years of restrictions. What once was thought would be a standstill turned into a big “boom” of innovation and advancements.
Leigh Reyes, 2022 Boomerang Awards Co-Chair and Chair Emeritus & Product Officer of MullenLowe Treyna, adds “Winning a Boomerang has become a point of pride for digital marketers across multiple organizations, because it has always held local work to an international standard, something all the more critical in a borderless world. Can the Philippines be a global center of excellence for digital marketing?
It is certainly the Boomerang Awards’ aspiration to make it so, by celebrating the work that sets new standards for practitioners and the industry as a whole”
