The Goat Farm founder Vaughn Davis recognises that there are some major problems with Cannes, but he still sees value in the event’s ability to inspire fresh creatives to think differently.
As the final Lions were handed out over the weekend, New Zealand’s total haul of 60 over the course of the event saw the nation finish in sixth position. This result will taste particularly sweet, given that it puts New Zealand one place above our frenemies across the ditch, who only landed 58 Lions.
Kiwi agencies have enjoyed a very fruitful period at Cannes, winning Lions across most categories and again reiterating the quality of work that emerges from our small island nation every year. This run of success continued over the weekend, with Kiwi agencies picking up two of the coveted Titanium Lions, which are awarded only to stand out entries.
Colenso BBDO and FCB have each nabbed Lions so far and with shortlists announced, we see which other agencies might be set to take home their own.
