Les Impériales 2026: TNC–The Next Clic named agency of the year
An agency award is a sign of creative recognition. It becomes really useful to an advertiser when he can understand the rewarded work, the criteria of the jury and their relation to his own need. The Imperials' rankings offer this opportunity to read, beyond the ranking.

The signal: what is documented
The tenth edition of the Imperial Week was completed on 3 April 2026 in Casablanca. In the list published the next day by the association, TNC–The Next Clic receives the award of agency of the year and COPAG–Jaouda the award of advertiser of the year. The Digital–AI Craft category distinguishes Inception Communication for a campaign of Digital Moroccan Power linked to the Green March. These results are those of the official list.
This panorama allows you to look at several dimensions of Moroccan creation: idea, execution, content, devices and innovation. A reward must be described in its category and edition. It does not alone certify all the competences of an agency, nor does it prove the relevance of the agency to all the briefs.
Read a list as a set of cases
The Agency of the Year designation recognizes a performance in a competition, and does not replace the consideration of a strategic proposal for a given sector, market and budget. In preparing a consultation, we recommend returning to the distinguished campaigns: what problem they dealt with, what idea they had and what elements of the file are publicly verifiable? The reward then becomes a point of entry, rather than an argument that closes the discussion.
What an AI distinction makes it possible to ask
A category dedicated to artificial intelligence raises a specific question: what function did the tool perform in the project? Ideation, production, adaptation and optimization do not describe the same input. The case deserves to specify what was automated, creative leadership work and validations performed. The use of a tool alone does not demonstrate a better idea or a higher commercial result.
Practical case: constitute a list of agencies
A fictitious advertiser is preparing a bilingual campaign for several Moroccan cities. He can retain rewarded agencies among the candidates, then ask them for a comparable case in complexity and a method of deployment. The selection must examine the team who will perform the work, the production partners and the validation rules. This method is neither a ranking of the Le Fils de Pub nor a certification of the current capacity of the winners.
What to Distinguish in the Balance Sheet
Recognized creativity, customer satisfaction and commercial efficiency are related but distinct dimensions. A pricing record can tell a campaign in a very convincing way; proof of effectiveness depends on the available data and protocol. For our coverage of awards, the principle is therefore to name the reward and its source, then to discuss the lessons without awarding to a prize results that it does not document.
The point of vigilance
To compare partners, link each price to the campaign, the exact role of the agency and the communication problem dealt with.
