“Another record year for entries not only proves that clients are now, more than ever, demanding to see measurable and proven effectiveness from their campaigns but also that the agencies are really delivering.

We now look forward to gathering the industry together in April to showcase the work, provide unbeatable content and honour the winners” says Myriam Coupard Festival Director of the Asian Marketing Effectiveness Festival.
Led by James Thompson, Chief Marketing Officer, Diageo Asia Pacific, 36 industry experts from Asia-Pacific will come together in Shanghai to judge the 971 entries. The Asian Marketing Effectiveness Awards Ceremony, taking place on 27 April at the Pudong Shangri-La Hotel in Shanghai, will bring to a close the 2-day Festival and reveal, honour and celebrate this year's winners.
