Spikes Asia announces full juries for 2022

Spikes Asia has today announced the full jury line-up of industry leaders set to judge the 35th annual edition of the Spikes Asia Awards. 

Asia Pacific’s most prestigious creative communications awards will bring 106 jurors together to judge work in 24 awards categories, including new awards developed in response to the region’s shifting creative trends: The Creative Data Spike, the Social & Influencer Spike, and the incorporation of the Tangram Awards to form the new Strategy & Effectiveness Spike.

In 2022, the awards will set the definitive benchmark for not only creative excellence, but also marketing strategy and effectiveness in Asia-Pacific for the first time.

“This formidable line-up of jury members represents the dynamism and diversity of the APAC creative community and the evolution of the Spikes Asia Awards," said Philip Thomas, Chairman, Spikes Asia. "2022 is an exciting year for Spikes Asia. A number of Spikes Award categories have been refreshed and expanded and the new Strategy & Effectiveness Spike, recognises the vital link between creativity and marketing effectiveness.”

The jury members represent locations across APAC, including: Bangladesh, China, Japan,
New Zealand and South Korea, across a wide range of creative industry disciplines and
backgrounds.

The juries will convene remotely to judge the work in February 2022 and the Spikes Asia
Awards Grands Prix and Special Awards winners will be announced in March 2022.
