June has been a wonderful month for Danilo Acquisto. He's a Good Hope FM weekend DJ, but soon you'll see him on TV, as he's expanding his repertoire to all 'talk journalism' with his recent win of the Presenter Search on 3. If that's put you in inspired, award-winning mindset, display your digital smarts at the 2015 Smarties Awards, set to take place as part of this year's Loeries Creative Week in Durban on Thursday, 13 August. Entries into the Smarties close tomorrow, so get cracking! Then, if you're looking for global inspiration, you're in luck because as of today, Cannes Lions 2015 officially kicks off. We've had a week of expectations and highlights of years past, now get ready, as Lions CEO Phillip Thomas says "The best is yet to come!" The Cannes Lions Pharma and Health & Wellness winners were announced on Saturday, and we also have all the finalist shortlists as soon as they're released, along with the award ceremony results and exclusive insights from Ann Nurock, attending as our first ever media correspondent on the ground in Cannes. Click through to our Cannes Lions Special Section and don't forget to follow Ann on our Twitter account, as well as our Facebook and Instagram pages on the #bizatcannes hashtag for more!
