BOB GREENBERG STEPS IN TO REPLACE
BOB SCARPELLI AS TITANIUM AND INTEGRATED JURY PRESIDENT
London, 21 May 2010 - This year’s elite Titanium and Integrated Jury, which awards breakthrough ideas and the best integrated campaigns, will now be chaired by Bob Greenberg, Chairman, CEO and Global Chief Creative Officer of R/GA. He takes over from Bob Scarpelli, DDB Worldwide’s Chairman and Chief Creative Officer, who contracted an infection and is recovering. However, while he is on the mend, travel is not possible at this time.
Bob Greenberg has been a pioneer in the advertising and communications industry for over three decades. Bob leads the vision for R/GA, an agency that serves as the digital partner for Fortune 500 companies and world-renowned brands including Nike, Johnson & Johnson, L’Oréal Paris, MasterCard, Hewlett-Packard, Nokia and Walmart. The agency has offices in New York, San Francisco, London, Singapore, São Paulo and will soon open in Buenos Aires.
R/GA is one of the world’s most influential advertising agencies, emphasising the importance of integrated strategies, creative excellence and innovative technology. Bob and his brother Richard founded R/Greenberg Associates in 1977 with the idea of creating a company that values design, while focusing on developing leading-edge motion graphics and live-action film and video production. The company created groundbreaking visual effects for movies, including Alien, Predator, Seven and Zelig. R/GA’s body of work spans 400 feature films and 4,000 television commercials.
In the mid 90s, Bob successfully transitioned the company into a multi-platform advertising agency specialising in database-driven information and multi-channel e-businesses. R/GA served as the lead digital partner for the world’s most recognised brands and embraced the importance of integrated strategies in a new media environment.
Under Bob’s leadership, R/GA was recently recognised by Adweek as the Digital Agency of the Decade, has been listed on Fast Company’s Top 10 Most Innovative Advertising & Marketing Companies, Advertising Age’s Agencies of the Decade and Agency A-List, named as Creativity’s Interactive Agency of the Year and honoured by Campaign, naming Nike+ as one of the Top Ten Digital Ads of the Decade.
Bob has won many awards for creativity including the Academy Award, GRANDY at the ANDY Awards, a D&AD Black Pencil, a Cyber Lion Grand Prix and Titanium Lions at Cannes. Among his most notable awards are the 2007 BDA Lifetime Achievement Award, Clio Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006, Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award for Communications in 2003 that honours the best in American design, and the Chrysler Design Award for Innovation in Design. He was also the 2004 Cyber Lions Jury President and was a member of the 2005 Titanium Lions Jury.
"We are obviously very sorry that Bob Scarpelli – a great friend of many in this industry and the man who has presided over some of the most innovative work in our business – cannot travel to Cannes to be with us this year, and we wish him all the best," says Philip Thomas, CEO of the Festival. "We are delighted, though, that Bob Greenberg will be joining us. With his extraordinary creative pedigree and experience across many channels of communication, he will be an excellent leader for the world-class Titanium and Integrated Jury."
Commenting, Bob Greenberg said, "These are truly unfortunate circumstances and I wish Bob Scarpelli a speedy recovery. It is an honour to be selected to step in as President of the highly esteemed Titanium and Integrated Jury. I will rely on the high caliber jury to evaluate and choose not only the most innovative and breakthrough work, but also campaigns that demonstrate integration and consistency across the breadth of media today."

CANNES LIONS 2010 ENTRIES INCREASE 7%
24,242 Total Entries – the 4th Highest Number in the History of Cannes.
London, 2 June 2010 - The Organisers of the 57th Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival today announced that more than 24,000 entries from 90 countries, the 4th highest level of entries ever, will be competing for the coveted Lions at this year’s event, an increase of 7% versus last year.
"Cannes Lions reflects the communications industry, and these results tell a fascinating story,” says Philip Thomas, Festival CEO. “Firstly, of course, they suggest that the industry as a whole is recovering from the distress of 2009 (entries to the Festival were down 20% last year) and indeed they show recovery coming not only from places you would expect like Latin America or India, but also countries like Sweden, Turkey, the UK, France and the USA, all of which have picked up considerably.”
“The figures also show different categories showing differing levels of growth. While some traditional sections are down year-on-year, there are significant increases in Media and Cyber as well as in the newer Cannes Lions sections – especially PR and Promo & Activation which have grown by 32% and 43% respectively,” continued Philip Thomas. “We look forward to welcoming the 12 juries to Cannes where they will take on the daunting task to view, judge, deliberate and honour the best creative work from the world’s communications industry.”

PROMO & ACTIVATION, PR & DIRECT LIONS WINNERS ANNOUNCED
PROMO & ACTIVATION AND PR GRANDS PRIX GO TO USA
DIRECT GRAND PRIX GOES TO NEW ZEALAND
Cannes, 22 June 2010 - The first of the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival winners were honoured last night at the first of four Awards Ceremonies taking place during the Festival week.
Both the Promo & Activation Grand Prix and the PR Grand Prix went to TBWA\CHIAT\DAY LA in the USA, with assistance from Paragon Marketing Group and Fleishman-Hillard, for their entry ‘Replay’ to promote the energy drink Gatorade.
Of the 1,595 entries submitted in the Promo & Activation category, a 43% increase versus last year, 150 were shortlisted from which 55 were selected as winners by the international jury led by Tina Manikas, Global Retail & Promotions Officer of Draftfcb. Along with the Grand Prix a further 8 Gold, 20 Silver and 26 Bronze Lions were also awarded.
In its second year the PR category received 571 entries, up 32% from last year. Due to the high increase in entries, the jury decided that it was necessary to award Gold and Silver Lions, rather than only PR Lions, which is normal for a new category. The PR jury, chaired by Paul Taaffe, Global Chairman and CEO of Hill & Knowlton, awarded 11 Gold Lions and 32 Silver Lions from an initial shortlist of 87.
Of the 1,441 entries submitted in the Direct Lions category, 164 went on to make the shortlist of which 19 Gold, 24 Silver and 31 Bronze Lions were awarded. Special Group Auckland in New Zealand won the Grand Prix for their entry ‘Orcon + Iggy Pop’ for Orcon Broadband. The Direct Lions Jury of 30 members was chaired by Pablo Alzugaray, Chief Executive Officer of Shackleton.
The prestigious Direct Agency of the Year award was won by Abbott Mead Vickers, BBDO, London, UK.
All the Promo & Activation, PR and Direct Lions winners along with their credits can be viewed online at www.canneslions.com/work .
Since the Festival opened on Sunday, delegates have enjoyed presentations by key industry leaders including, JWT’s Bob Jeffrey, Fernando Vega Olmos and Guy Murphy who offered an inside peek at how three pioneering initiatives have impacted the industry; Ogilvy’s Vice Chairman, Rory Sutherland introduced three of the most persuasive salespeople from their World’s Greatest Salesperson competition with the audience deciding the winner via real-time voting and Electronic Arts examined how interactive entertainment is evolving as a game-changing medium.
The 57th Annual Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival, the largest and most coveted awards in the industry’s calendar is currently taking place in France, attended by 8,000 industry peers.
