The Fresh Group has been awarded the Santander Convention for 2012 – making it the fifth year in a row the creative communications agency has organised the event.

The event will take place in February at Earls Court and 2,500 delegates are expected to attend. The Fresh Group started working with the financial services company on the annual event in 2008, and successfully pitched and won the business again over the past three years.

Account director, Becky Dewhurst said: “We’re thrilled to be working with Santander again on the Convention for 2012. We were proud of our pitch and felt we demonstrated our knowledge of the brand and our ability to think creatively and approach this event with as much enthusiasm as we did the first time we pitched.”

Operations director, Damian Besbrode added: “This win comes towards the end of another successful year for the Fresh Group and ensures that the beginning of 2012 will be busy and productive with new and old clients alike.”
