IAA IndIAA Awards Chairman, Abhishek Karnani, said, “Any award is only as good as the people who endorse it. I view the presence of such a high powered audience here today, and the presence of repeat sponsors, as a great endorsement for the IndIAA awards. Keeping in mind the phase we are hopefully emerging from, we have sculpted our awards event around a theme that acknowledges and inspires the need to show that it is good in everything around us. It just needs to be tapped into by us”
Suresh Narayanan, Jury Chairman and Chairman & Managing Director, Nestle India, said, “It’s been a privilege and honour to be the Jury Chair for three years in a row. These awards are the most prestigious in advertising and communications. This year, the IndIAA Awards received 200 plus nominations across all 31 categories. I want to congratulate every award winner for their outstanding work, you need to be truly proud of your yourselves, your agency, partners, teams, customers, consumers stakeholders and of everyone who has been involved in the success of the campaign”
