The Young Ones Student Awards are a globally recognised student competition celebrating emerging creative talent across advertising, design, digital, and visual communication. Run by The One Club for Creativity, a respected international organisation based in New York, the awards are considered one of the leading platforms for students entering the creative industry.
For 2026, Young Ones has brought together top talent from around the world, rising stars and established executives alike, to serve as jurors. The panel, which now includes Jardim, will review thousands of entries submitted by hopeful students and recent graduates, determining winners across the competition's four categories: ADC, One Show, TDC, and Portfolio.
Jardim's selection reflects the calibre of teaching and industry standing found at The Academy, and offers a valuable point of connection between The Academy's students and the global creative community.

Congratulations, Nico - and good luck reviewing those thousands of entries!
