We'd like to congratulate the 38 shortlisted teams that have been presenting over the past three days to the various Cannes Young Lions juries across our seven categories. Their energy and enthusiasm has been exceptional! The standard this year across all 105 entries has been extremely high, which made shortlisting down to just 38 teams a tough task for our panel of judges.
IAPI CEO Charley Stoney “Judging this competition is such a privilege. You get to see first-hand how incredibly talented and resourceful young creatives and marketers are. We are delighted both by the uptake for Cannes Young Lions this year as well as the quality of entries. And, with only 48 hours to respond! I believe the charities we picked this year and the quality of the briefs has brought out the altruism and empathetic nature of everyone concerned.”
This year's Cannes Young Lions winners will be revealed early April.
