The Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity hat soeben Phase 1 auf dem Weg zu den diesjährigen Werber-Festspielen abgeschlossen. Heisst: Die Jury-Präsidenten stehen fest. wir haben ihre Namen und ihre Portraitfotos für Euch auf GoSee. Denn: Der Sommer naht !

Das Statement von Philip Thomas, CEO des Lions Festivals, in 2016 zum werbewirksamen Event :  “It’s not easy to win a Lion. On average our juries will award just 3% of more than 40,000 entries. They’re looking for unique work that is creatively exceptional and challenges the norm. What we look for in our presidents is people that have been in this 3% time and time again – it’s a significant responsibility leading a Cannes Lions jury and we’re incredibly proud to have such a powerful mix of individuals who know what creative excellence looks like, because they have it in abundance themselves.”
