The first step in this process is the promotion of Cannes Lions' CEO, Terry Savage, to the role of Executive Chairman. Savage will be a guiding force in the Festival's continued future development.
A new CEO will be appointed to support Savage and to ensure a clear succession plan is in place for the future.
Malcolm Gough, Group Managing Director of Emap Business International, says: "This is an exciting time for Cannes Lions and we are looking forward to appointing a strong leader to take the Festival into its next stage of growth."
