Ookla, industry leader for down detection and network speeds, sought to make a change in its recognition program. Best known for speedtest.net and downdetector.net, its team wanted to honor the elite in the industry with something that emanated the skill it takes to be the best of the best.
Although they had an existing program, they really wanted to recognize the winners in a more unique way. These winners were global, and their accomplishments were hard to come by in the communications space. A standard award that you would typically find online or in a catalog would not be impressive enough for this group.
We collaborated with their founders to create a truly one-of-a-kind monolith that captures the essence of the elite winners in their space. The tower is machined out of solid aluminum and finished in 18k gold. We rounded the program out with a highly customized presentation box fit for a king.
