OOH has evolved significantly in recent years, becoming a sought-after medium for everything from traditional print to spectacular 3D billboards and omnichannel extravaganzas. That is why we continue to celebrate the campaigns, people and companies driving innovation, creativity and excellence around the world.
Our judging panel – chaired by Jonathan Emmins, founder and global chief executive of Amplify – was on the lookout for the most innovative, creative and effective work.
