“2016's Executive Jury brings together a live panel of prominent global creatives who represent some of the world's most ground-breaking and highly awarded campaigns,” said Michael O'Rourke, President, New York Festivals. “NYF's Executive Jury will evaluate all shortlisted entries across all competitions and categories selected by NYF's online Grand Jury; these combined juries of international creatives cast over 300,000 votes each year and insure that all award-winning work is worthy of being called the World's Best Advertising.”
