REV Media Group takes home seven honours at MDA d'Awards
KUALA LUMPUR: REV Media Group (REV) took home seven awards at the Malaysian Digital Association (MDA) d'Awards 2025, including two of the night's highest accolades — Digital Publisher of the Year and the newly introduced Content Agency of the Year.
The recognition highlights REV's growing role not just as a leading digital publisher, but also as a full-service content agency capable of delivering data-driven storytelling, branded content and digital campaign solutions across platforms.
The Digital Publisher of the Year award reaffirmed REV's editorial leadership in Malaysia's media landscape, where it operates across multiple languages and audience segments with a platform-native content strategy.
Meanwhile, the Content Agency of the Year award, a new category this year, recognised REV's evolution into a branded content powerhouse, with the ability to serve clients through integrated digital, video and social-first creative campaigns.
Together, the two Silver-tier titles signal REV's dual strength in both public-interest journalism and commercial brand storytelling.
ADDITIONAL AWARDS FOR CONTENT INNOVATION
In addition to the top awards, REV also won five Bronze honours across performance, innovation and creative execution categories.
These included:
Best Use of AI & Other Digital Tech Products, for its deployment of AI tools and analytics across editorial and advertising workflows
Two wins in Best Use of Content/Advertorial/Native Advertising, reflecting its success in delivering branded stories that resonate with readers
A win for Best Use of Digital Marketing Innovation
A win in the Best Use of Social Media Platform category for the group's ability to build engagement through culturally relevant, platform-specific content

REV Media Group chief executive officer Samuel Wee said: "This year's wins are very meaningful."
"We're honoured to be recognised for the work we do as publishers, but also for our evolution into a content agency that can deliver creative excellence and business impact for our clients.
"These awards are a testament to the grit, creativity and discipline of the entire team," he added.
Previously, REV won seven awards at the 2024 MDA d'Awards, including Digital Publisher of the Year, and was also honoured in 2023 for its work on election engagement platform MyUndi and its innovation in social media content.
