Supporting Canadians at Cannes - An honour and a privilege
2012 marks the eighth year The Globe and Mail has served as the official Cannes Lions Canadian representative. It's a role we're extremely proud of, and one we take very seriously.The Globe is committed to supporting Canadians at Cannes, whether they're seasoned veterans or wide-eyed first-timers. And naturally, when it comes to cheering for entrants, we're at the front of the line.
Canadians as Judges
As Canada's official representative, The Globe is also honoured to have been part of the 2012 committee for the Cannes' Lions Canadian jury selection, which includes some of our country's brightest talent. The 2012 jurors include:
Canadians as Some of World's Top Young Creatives
Yet another way The Globe supports Canadians at Cannes is through our annual Canadian Young Lions competition. And this year we've added for the first time, the Young Marketers qualifying competition, a competition for marketers 30 or under who work in a marketing capacity for a client organization. These high-intensity competitions uncover Canada's top up-and-coming talent. More importantly, it entitles--and prepares--winners to participate in the official Cannes Young Lions and Young Marketers competitions during the Festival.
