Cannes Lions is truly the world’s global meeting place for those working in creativity in communications. More than 10,000 registered delegates from 91 countries attended the Festival in 2012.

And 2012 marked the inaugural year of mobile as a distinct and separate award category at the festival so it was only fitting in this milestone year that the MMA set out to make a big impression in Cannes. By all accounts, it proved to be a “runaway” success with overwhelmingly positive feedback.

In fact, the CEO of Cannes Lions commented that he had never seen any organization “get it so quickly, have such a bold vision and execute against that vision in such an impactful way in the first year – it generally takes companies three years to figure it out.”

2013 promises to build upon the success we started in 2012. So, climb aboard with us and don’t miss the opportunity be a part of one of the most exciting global events of the year with the marketers and agencies that matter most.
