Spikes Asia has announced the fourteen industry leaders set to judge Asia Pacific’s most prestigious creative communications awards.
For the first time, gender parity has been reached and Spikes Asia has the strongest female representation across its Jury Presidents in its 35 editions.
This year’s Jury Presidents come from across the region including China, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, India and The Philippines, as well as from a mix of disciplines from throughout the industry.
Speaking about this year’s Jury Presidents, Philip Thomas, Chairman, Spikes Asia, said, “It’s an exciting time for Spikes Asia as we incorporate the Tangrams Awards to create the definitive benchmark for both creative excellence and marketing strategy and effectiveness across Asia-Pacific. This collection of outstanding talent is representative of the evolved Spikes Asia Awards and we are delighted to have them all onboard.”
The Jury Presidents will judge work in 24 awards categories, including in the three newly launched Spikes - Strategy and Effectiveness, Creative Data and Social and Influencer which are in response to the shifting creative trends across the region. The Jury Presidents and their juries will convene remotely to judge the work in February 2022 with the winners of the Spikes Asia Awards announced on March 3 2022. ‘Spikes Asia x Campaign Asia: The Experience’ is also set to return from March 1-3 2022 and more information on the hybrid event will be released later in the year. Interested delegates are welcome to register their interest here.
Spikes Asia celebrates inspiring Asia-Pacific creativity in advertising and marketing. Building on over 35 years of the illustrious Spikes Awards and Tangrams Strategy and Effectiveness Awards, Spikes Asia is the result of a collaboration between the organizers of Cannes Lions and Haymarket, publishers of Campaign Asia Pacific.
The Spikes Asia will return as a virtual event in March 2022. In 2021, The Spikes Asia Festival of Creativity went virtual in partnership with Campaign Asia-Pacific to produce Spikes Asia X Campaign: The Virtual Experience. Over 3,000 creative communications professionals registered to be a part of the virtual experience which centred around the theme, Creativity is the Growth Engine.
