Seven jury members from India would join Spikes Asia 2019 as jury members in different categories. The jury members from India are Bobby Pawar (Direct), Rajdeepak Das (Design and Print & Outdoor Craft), Ashish Chakravarty (Outdoor and Radio & Audio), Tanmany Mohanty (Media), Abhinav Pratiman (Film Craft), Lyndon Louis (Healthcare) and Archana Jain (PR).

Spikes Asia had earlier announced about BBDO India Chairman & Chief Creative Officer Josy Paul heading the jury for Film, Print & Publishing and Glass categories.

This year, 97 jury members from 17 countries will convene in Singapore to benchmark the very best creative work from across the region. Judging will take place throughout the three-day Festival, from 25 - 27 September 2019, culminating in an evening Awards Show to celebrate APAC creative excellence. The Juries will be comprised of 49% female creative leaders this year, across 22 Spikes Award categories, including the new Creative eCommerce Spike.

Commenting on the announcement, Joe Pullos, Festival Director, Spikes Asia, said, “The Spikes Asia Awards set the future focus of the industry. I’m delighted to welcome such esteemed jury members to represent the Spikes Awards in 2019 and ensure that the creative benchmark for Asia Pacific is set. The region is creatively diverse, so it’s a pleasure to introduce such a diversity of jury members, representing a breadth of countries, disciplines and backgrounds, including close to an equal gender split.”
