Loeries add to AdExpo

Among the expo visitors are the advertisers, clients, media owners, planners and buyers that make up the brand communication industry. By adding the travelling exhibition to their itinerary, they can witness firsthand the levels of creative excellence to which their industry aspires.

Andrew Human, CEO of The Loerie Awards, will provide insight into the Loeries judging process and how the awards champion creativity in the industry, at a free talk at 1pm on 25 March. With the 31 May deadline for entry to The 2010 Loerie Awards two months away, this is the perfect opportunity for the industry to brush up on the requirements and criteria.

“As providers of award-winning technology and software that enables creativity, we are very excited with our partnership with the Loerie Awards and its travelling exhibition,” says Leonard Rabotapi, marketing manager in Africa at Adobe Systems. “This relationship enables us to help promote and reward creative excellence in the creative industry. As part of the exhibition, the company will also present workshops in leading design and educational facilities around the country. We see our partnership growing to offer even more value to the creative community.”
