At CMO Asia Awards Zee Entertainment’s Mind Wars bags two awards!

#ZeeEntertainment’s Mind Wars, India’s biggest knowledge platform for school students, has been awarded two #CMOAsiaAwards2021 for #MindWarsOlympiad in the Best PR Campaign and #BestIntegratedDigitalStrategy of the year categories. The announcements were made at the CMO Asia Awards ceremony on Oct 6th, 2021 at Taj Lands End, Mumbai.

Mind Wars Olympiad, launched in 2020 was an online quiz program that allowed registered participants to play for national recognition in the GK Olympiad – consisting of relevant and interesting general awareness questions which focused on improving students’ awareness levels and improve students’ ability to crack competitive tests.

Mind War’s cohesive integrated digital strategy and its PR campaign helped in enabling great participation from multiple schools across the country. Thousands of students every day participated in our app to compete and win against their peers. With lockdown in effect and no opportunity for physical outreach to students and parents, consistent visibility of the program across platforms enabled mind-boggling online participation from children across India to make Mind Wars Olympiad a sensational hit.

On receiving the award, Mr. Umesh Kr Bansal, Executive Vice President, Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited said, “We at Mind Wars are honored and delighted to have received this prestigious international recognition. This is a testament to our teams that have put in a lot of hard work and we are very proud of these efforts being recognized.
