A special Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity bonus for you! ❤️ 🎁 Utiq's Carlos Molina del Rio, Director of Product: Ecosystem and Partnerships, sat down with the amazing Mediashotz team to have an exclusive conversation about our Authentic Consent Service proposition and plans for future growth. He also touches on sustainability - a part of our proposition that is incredibly important to us. As Carlos says: "We are a privacy focused business, but with this respect for privacy comes data minimisation, reduced energy consumption, and naturally a more sustainable way of enabling responsible digital advertising." Not only does Carlos have the best beard in #adtech, he's also one of the nicest people in the industry too, so sit back, relax and listen to the awesome Carlos Molina del Rio :) You can watch more from Carlos and Mediashotz here: https://lnkd.in/eFvwxH2T #cannes2004 #canneslions #teamutiq #yourchoicestaysyours Marc Bresseel Will Harmer Julia Gloning Jana Moran Laurent Norridge Norman Wagner Pascale Arguinarena Richard Finer Sophie Poncin Michail Piperakis Monica Rodriguez Paz Carlos Molina del Rio Boris Weiss julien delhommeau Beatrice Lhopitallier Alexandra Jaspar Sara Vincent Catherine Murray Gunter Everink Kostas Chrysovitsiotis Christina Lundari Paul Evans #adtech #data #digitalmarketing #innovation #technology #marketing #change #digitalsovereignty #brands #publishers #audiences #privacy #trust #people #digital #advertising #media #business #digitaladvertising #tech #telco #cookieless

Had a very cool chat with Lars Hemming Jorgensen & STAN Studios at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity this year. I shared a bit about what we're doing at Karta: making brands & fandom playable. As well as my thoughts on emerging technologies. Two things I would have done differently looking back at the interview: 1. On the question of rising feelings of depression & screen addiction: I would have said this is actually more a case of what happens offline; parenting, environment, family situation - feelings & emotions outside of the virtual realm that impact young people growing up which they bring into these worlds whilst trying to "escape". Sometimes it helps to sooth & remove these feelings, & sometimes it amplifies them. It's vital young people learn how to communicate their feelings/potential addictions online & offline, in safe, supportive spaces for them to do so. 2. I would have cut off all my wrist bands as it looks like I've been to waaay too many music festivals! Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity can we arrange a digital pass system next year please? 😅 Hope you find some value in it 🙂 Thank you very much to Erik Londré, Lars and the Stan Studio's team for the opportunity... & their incredibly production value! #metaverse #culture #community #inspiration #roblox #fortnite #brandawareness #brandmarketing #fanengagement #fans #sports #music #fashion #kpop #football #gaming #socialemediamarketing #new #socialplatforms #strategy #networking #business

The ShowHeroes team is currently at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity and CEO Ilhan Zengin has thoughts on this year’s atmosphere. This year’s Cannes Lions is very different from last year’s, where caution was the dominant feeling. But is it roaring excitement this year, or something more nuanced?

What a panel at yesterday's AdNews L!VE Adelaide event! Joining dentsu's own Danny Bass on stage was SA Premier Peter Malinauskas, saying that South Australia's advertising industry is crucial in furthering the state's economic growth as it delivers trustworthy information.

Creativity is our common language. Creativity is a force for change. People may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them 'feel'. Is my work driving 'me'. If you're creating alone, you're creating wrong. So many good messages in this clip for #canneslions2024. What brand has made you feel something through their story-telling? It most likely was memorable - whether it was a feeling of enlightenment, joy, sadness, pride, admiration, inspiration, motivation, maybe even anger (hopefully not confusion) - then it probably worked to build an impression, make you think, act, or feel something that you'll remember when you go to purchase, or alleviate tension if service was poor one day. #makeemotionalconnections #creativemarketing #takerisks #followyourexperience #followyourgut #insightsdrivecreativity #culturaldifferences #loyaltystillmatters

Brilliant in message and design.

Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, we need to talk… Year after year you have challenged me to be bold, be creative, be effective, be efficient. Immerse myself in the business, build strong agency partnerships, and fuel my strategic thinking. For a long time, I believed that self-improvement was the key to joining the elite conversations at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. After years of learning from industry giants like Peter Field, Mark Ritson Byron Sharp Orlando Wood James Hurman I felt ready to be part of that dialogue. But Cannes, we seriously need to talk. The reality is that attending to the “Athens of marketing and creative effectiveness” remains a distant dream for many of us as the cost of participation is prohibitively expensive. To my fellow marketers who feel the same: I HEAR YOU! We are expected to push the boundaries of creativity and effectiveness, yet we are often left out when it matters most. And to Cannes, you are truly an inspiration for many of us, but when talking about consumer centricity, you need to revisit your business model to give us some entry level. Common, be creative 😊! Until we can meet physically, I will continue to advocate from the distance the spirit of Cannes Lions—effectiveness’s, boldness, creativity—as a state of mind. Looking forward to meet in the upcoming years, Gaby #MarketingLife #CannesLions #CreativeExcellence #IndustryChallenges #StayConnected #MarketingCommunity
