Luxurious Executive Jury travels to Lisbon to assess global advertising creativity

Last week the Lisbon International Advertising Festival had announced that its President of the Jury would be the ultra-renowned Brazilian adman Washington Olivetto.

Now we are pleased to announce the remaining names of our Executive Jury, who will be travelling to Lisbon in September in order to assess in person the best creative works on a global scale.

The only Portuguese adman will be the international creative leader Luís Silva Dias, the Chief Creative Officer of FCB International. Chacho Puebla, the Executive Creative Director & Partner at LOLA/LOWE Spain, will travel from Madrid.

Coming from Prague, we will welcome Jaime Mandelbaum, the European Chief Creative Officer of Young & Rubicam. In representation of the creative boutiques, Doerte Spengler-Ahrens, the Chief Creative Officer of the ultra-renowned Hamburg-based agency Jung von Matt/Fleet, will also be present.

Sarah Barclay, the Executive Creative Director of J. Walter Thompson New York, will travel from the United States of America, joining Fábio Seidl, the Group Creative Director of the also New York-based 360i.

Jason Romeyko, the Global Chief Creative Officer of the GSK & Deutsche Telekom accounts, and the Executive Creative Director of Saatchi & Saatchi Switzerland, will be travelling from Switzerland.

The juries that will make the longest trip are Eugene Cheong, the Regional Creative Director of Ogilvy & Mather Asia & Pacific and Ramzy Haddad, the Executive Creative Director of Publicis Middle East - MENA Region.
