by Rob Corder on Sunday, 22 April 2007
Arc Dubai’s Sony High Definition TV website was named as Best in Class for Retail.

Arc Worldwide in Dubai has landed three gongs in the international Interactive Media Awards (IMA).

The New York-based awards recognise the highest standards of excellence in website design and development and are judged by executives from American Express, Conde Nast Publications, Microsoft, the New York Times, Ogilvy & Mather, Time Warner Inc. and Verizon Business.

Arc Dubai, which is a division of Leo Burnett Worldwide, was named as one of the top 10 global agencies in 2006. It was one of only two non-American firms in the top 10.
