I’m obsessed with the future and ideas that challenge our predictions of it. I hope to see a lot of work that goes beyond campaigns and classic content marketing and to highlight those ideas that look ahead and not just communicates but ideas that could be turned into Brand IP’s and future revenue streams.Being in the jury is being a curator on behalf of the industry. The speed of communication, campaigns and content publishing is impossible to keep up with, which is why it’s important to highlight the work that inspires the industry to move forward.
