Brainchild BCW, Uganda’s Public Relations, Digital, and Events agency has been named Best PR and Digital Agency at African Excellence Awards — which seek to recognize outstanding African companies and individuals who have contributed to Africa’s growth.
The awards are organized by AI Global Media and Middle East and Africa (MEA) Markets in England and are an essential guide to the key sectors driving growth throughout the continent, rewarding outstanding companies and individuals whose entrepreneurship has strengthened Africa’s position as the next global economic powerhouse.
Kaven Cooper, the Awards Coordinator, at MEA Markets said, the Awards celebrate the growing influence of African business on the world stage, providing the region’s leading enterprises with the opportunity to showcase the ambition, dedication, and accomplishments that set them apart from their competition.
“All of our winners offer something unique to the corporate landscape, and I wish them all the best for the future ahead,” Cooper said.
Upon receiving the award, Walter Wafula, the General Manager of Brainchild BCW said the recognition is a solid vote of confidence in Brainchild BCW — adding that “It also validates the fact that we are supporting our clients to effectively reach their audiences in Africa by developing high-impact PR and digital campaigns that create top-of-mind awareness for our client’s brands and ultimately help move people and businesses to achieve their dreams.”
He thanked all their clients across banking, telecoms, insurance, and beverages, among other industries, as well as the Government of Uganda for collaborating with the agency to implement communication strategies that have not only driven their success but contributed towards the country’s socio-economic growth, over the last 15 years.
While concluding his remarks, Wafula noted that PR and Digital communications play a central role in bridging the gap between businesses and their customers as well as stakeholders.
Frank Muthusi, Group CEO of Fireworks Advertising commended the Brainchild BCW team for upholding the agency’s winning culture locally and at the global level.
“I wish to take this opportunity to re-affirm Brainchild BCW’s commitment to delivering outstanding value to our clients in Uganda and Rwanda who are constantly looking to create a positive impact on people and our economies,” he said.

Regardless of company size or industry authority, the team at MEA Markets only considered evidence related to company performance, productivity, quality of products and services, and customer satisfaction.
