AUSTIN, Texas - Oct. 6, 2020 - PRLog -- Campaign US' 40 Over 40 Awards has named Threshold CEO Billy Wilkinson as one of the most talented and accomplished people transforming the United States advertising industry.

The Campaign US 40 Over 40 Awards honor executives for their noteworthy contributions across advertising, marketing, media, technology and communications – from groundbreaking creative work and head-turning innovations to outside-of-the-box thinking and award-winning campaigns.

"I'm honored to have been nominated and to have received this reward, but I'm only able to do what I do because of the wonderful, skilled team I have supporting me," Wilkinson said. "My team members are the ones responsible for getting me here. They give their talents and expertise every day to our clients and have made Threshold into an award-winning agency."

Nominations were judged by a panel consisting of the Campaign editorial team, as well as decorated industry leaders, including Steve Williams, global COO of Essence; PJ Pereira, cofounder and creative chairman of Pereira O'Dell; Heide Gardner, SVP, chief D&I officer of Interpublic Group; Mel Edwards, CEO of Wunderman Thompson; and Doug Melville, chief diversity officer of TBWA Worldwide.
