The Dubai Lynx awards ceremony had started with messages from the organisers, and the Jury Presidents.
Jonathan Harries, the Worldwide Chief Creative Officer of DraftFCB Group, USA, and the Jury President of the TV/Cinema, Print, Outdoor and Radio categories of Dubai Lynx Awards: “What if we had an awards show where we took all the good things from other awards shows, and none of the bad? The good news, as I see it, is we can. This is the inaugural.” Yes, he was referring to the Dubai Lynx Awards.
Fred Koblinger, Chief Executive Officer of PKP Proximity and BBDO Holdings, Austria and Jury President of the Direct and Interactive categories of Dubai Lynx Awards expressed his feelings thus: “I am honoured to lead a jury of international experts to discover state-of-the-art work and celebrate the winners of what is, without a doubt, the most valuable creative award in this part of the world.”
It was announced that keeping in mind the time factor, while all winners will be announced, only the winners of Gold Dubai Lynx Awards will be called on stage. Here are the Gold Dubai Lynx winners in the Outdoor categories.
Dubai Lynx Winners - Gold - Outdoor
Impact/BBDO Saudi Arabia for ‘Pool Pepsi’ outdoor of Pepsi
