After 23 years as Asia’s leading advertising awards, the Spikes will this year inaugurate as an Asian Advertising Festival offering a three-day programme themed to identify and address specific issues that are relevant to the Asian market.
"The launch of the Spikes Asia Festival will offer creative inspiration, an exceptional learning experience, a remarkable insight into the region’s advertising and communications industry and a unique networking opportunity," says Terry Savage, chairman of Cannes Lions, organisers of the event.
Tim Waldron, managing director of Haymarket, said, “With such an outstanding programme of events, this is an exciting opportunity for Spikes to become the must-attend event in Asia.”To register attendance and for information on a selection of hotels near the Festival venue, go to www.spikes.asia.
