The Casies, Year 2 —  it was so good the first time, we just had to do it again. 

For those that need a refresh, the Casies are XDA’s internal awards competition that celebrates our great work, storytelling, and collaborative spirit. Over the past year, teams submitted their project case studies for entry into the Casies. In December, the entire staff voted on their favorites across 3 categories - Corporate but Cool (Best B2B), Fan Fave (Best B2C), and The X Award (Best Full-Team Collaboration). And just a few days ago, winners were announced.

Join us on the journey as we honor an incredible 2023 — with fantastic creative, amazing wins, and lots of team love.

A lil’ pre-show vibes

We’re nothing if not professional. Our team prepped in all kinds of ways — from grabbing a cup of coffee, to dashing to the airport, to grabbing a quick nugget.

Let the ceremonies BEGIN

We started with a celebration of our incredible work throughout the year — from big corporate events, to fandom experiences, to White House moments, product launches, and beyond.

We also honored some of our brightest stars — toasting the teams and team members that showed incredible talent, commitment, and diligence to fostering strong work, healthy relationships, and agency growth.
