In 2016 Jung von Matt took first place in Manager Magazin and WuV ranking; in the HORIZONT creative radar she came second.

In 2017 - as in 2015 and 2013 - the agency did not take part in creative competitions in order to finance the in-house creative concept school, the JvM Academy.

criticism

On behalf of the RWE subsidiary RWE Innogy , Jung von Matt designed an advertising campaign in the Rhineland in 2016 under the motto “Rhineland becomes pure country”. The campaign was criticized against the background that RWE converts lignite into electricity and is one of the largest CO 2 emitters .

With the controversially discussed commercial on the occasion of Mother's Day for the retail chain Edeka , published on the morning of May 6, 2019 via YouTube , the agency triggered a real shit storm , which refers to the sexist portrayal of generally incompetent fathers in the spot.

Others

In March 2020 the advertising agency (on behalf of the Austrian Ministry of Health) invented the “baby elephant” as a unit of measurement for the distance that is prescribed or proposed as the minimum distance to be observed in the measures to combat the corona pandemic in Austria.
