LONDON - The big winner at the Revolution Awards 2008 was CHI & Partners, who scooped no less than four awards for X Factor Challenge for The Carphone Warehouse.

GT capped off a successful year, picking up Agency of the Year, while Play, Digital Outlook, Agency.com, Graphico and AKQA also fared well for outstanding client projects.

In a new category rewarding the best of affiliate marketing, TradeDoubler netted the award for results-driven work for HMV.

Digital luminaries flocked to the 11th Revolution Awards on Friday night to cheer the best work of the last 12 months.

Attended by more than 1,000 people, the prestigious Grosvenor House Hotel's Great Room played host to the great and good of digital marketing.

Revolution's editor, Mairi Clark, introduced the evening's events, while comedian and broadcaster Marcus Brigstocke entertained the throng with characteristically dry wit.
