Calypso Communications Wins 2009 Arc Award
Agency’s Outstanding Acheivement Recognized for Babcock Power Annual Report
Calypso Communications, a full-service public relations, marketing, and graphic design firm, today announced it has been recognized with a bronze award in the Summary Annual Review category in the 23rd Annual Report Competition (ARC) Awards for the firm’s conception and design of the 2009 Babcock Power Inc. Annual Report. This is the third consecutive year Calypso has received recognition for its writing, design, and production of the power company’s annual report.
Each year the ARC Awards competition evaluates entries from large- and small-scale organizations and individuals involved in developing and generating annual reports for publicly-held or privately owned companies, government agencies, associations, and not-for-profit organizations. The judges’ panel consists of industry professionals who critique and score each entry based on the report’s excellence in creativity, clarity, and effectiveness, as well as its success in communicating a company’s story.
Calypso has worked with Babcock Power Inc., a billion-dollar, privately held, global power generation services corporation, to develop its annual review since 2003. “We’re thrilled to receive an ARC Award for the third straight year,” said Calypso creative director Mike Teixeira. “It’s an honor to be recognized for the services we provide to a longtime client with whom we have a strong, established relationship, especially when the judges represent our peers in the communications industry.”
The ARC Awards, the world’s largest annual report competition, is hosted each year by MerComm, Inc., an independent awards organization dedicated to defining the standards of excellence in the communications field and recognizing individuals whose work has made an outstanding contribution to their organization, corporation, or client. The organization’s mission is to honor professionals who contribute to the advancement of the communications arts and sciences, and whose creativity and craft make a difference in the global marketplace.
