2023 — category B2B Campaign and Documentary

An independent jury evaluates and awards advertising, marketing and internet agencies that have realized particularly creative or successful projects. In 2023, 374 agencies took part in the competition and 1,340 projects were evaluated. riba:businesstalk was awarded the DEUTSCHER AGENTURPREIS in the B2B Campaign and Documentary category.
The submitted communication campaign was implemented on behalf of the tech group Schneider Electric and aims to make a subject of automation technology that requires a great deal of explanation – even for experts – understandable for specialists and decision-makers in all its facets. The focus is not primarily on a specific product or solution, but rather on a new approach to industrial automation. As a lighthouse project, a neutral documentary was produced with the agency’s own film team (rbt:tv). This film does not use any company-specific branding or other marketing messages. Instead, it is a deliberately neutral format that impresses with its high level of credibility and objectivity. Representatives of various professional groups who deal with the topic of automation in their own way – such as a mechanical engineer and a university professor – have their say.

2023 – Video documentary “New paths for automation”

The documentary “ New paths for automation” produced by riba:businesstalk was awarded the “intermedia-globe-Silver-Award” by WorldMediaFestival. It is a documentary on a central and pressing topic in industrial automation. It deals with the question of the principles according to which industrial plants are automated. For many decades, a concept of the so-called automation pyramid built around the PLC control system prevailed. In view of modern IT technologies and high computing power in the mechatronic components of industrial plants, it is now possible to think differently about automation and replace this concept. The new paradigm envisages a vendor-independent automation system based on IT logic. The special thing about this is that many factors that make the implementation of flexible and sustainable industrial plants difficult or even impossible – such as proprietary control systems or a lack of interoperability between the various components – are thus eliminated.
