    Over the past three days Eurobest has been celebrating creativity with a host of seminars, workshops, academies and networking that has left the 1800 delegates inspired and charged with fresh ideas. Commenting on the Branded Content & Entertainment work that has been seen coming out of Europe, jury president P J Pereira, Chief Creative Officer & Co-Founder of Pereira & O'Dell says, "The standard of entries in this category was incredibly high, in fact on average higher than at any other awards I've ever seen, so being shortlisted is incredible". PJ, who also took part in judging the Integrated category, added "From what we have seen at Eurobest, the idea of integration is changing. It's less about the different elements but more about the technique of combining thinking from lots of different worlds into something that is absolutely groundbreaking."

    All of the winners are available to view on www.eurobest.com along with photos and interviews from across the Festival.

    Lisbon has been host to Eurobest for three years; in 2014 the Festival will move to a new European location which has been confirmed as Helsinki, Finland.
