The race to determine the budding who’s who of adland continues, and it’s heating up with a new frontrunner coming out of nowhere.
This race rages on. As you can see below, Onam Khatri of OMD Australia maintains a strong lead. However, Banter Agency’s Uvani Appanna – after not making top ten in our last update – has seemingly come out of nowhere to hold a tight, but near-comfortable second-place ahead of Half Dome’s Cassie Longmuir.
Suss out the numbers below:
| Name | Votes (So Far) |
| 1. Onam Khatri – OMD Australia | 32,846 |
| 2. Uvani Appanna – Banter Agency | 2,585 |
| 3. Cassie Longmuir – Half Dome | 2339 |
| 4. Soujanya Datta – Finder | 1640 |
| 5. Neil Sura – Octagon | 1532 |
| 6. Joanna Szkurat – Zenith Media | 1524 |
| 7. Eugenia Yeung – Reprise Digital | 1259 |
| 8. Alysha Calder – Nine | 1237 |
| 9. Emmalee Fagerstrom – Yahoo | 1219 |
| 10. Arushi Srivastava – Cashrewards | 1212 |
| 11. Luke Duignan – Seven | 1209 |
Besides Uvani’s stellar last-minute run to number two, not much has changed since B&T’s update earlier this week. But with the whizkid from Half Dome, Cassie Longmuir, continuing to tally some impressive numbers, anything could happen in these final days.
