Event Overview
Cannes Lions has made significant changes to their awards architecture. A simplified structure for 2018 removed 120 sub-categories. And relevant new Lions were introduced, such as the Social & Influencer Lions and the Sustainable Development Goals Lions.
The PRCA is delighted to have Fiorenza Plinio, Head of Awards Development, present a deep dive in to the thinking behind the new award tracks. She’ll discuss what these changes mean and how Cannes Lions 2018 mirrors the trends in our industry with the 2018 PR Lions Jury President Stuart Smith (Global CEO, Ogilvy PR) and former juror Candace Kuss (Director of Social Media, Hill+Knowlton Strategies).
Finding the right category for your work is an integral part of success at Cannes. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn first-hand how PR agencies can win by expanding across the festival.
The jury presidents have been chosen. Submissions are now open. What will you enter?
