Australia leads winners pack in Round 1 of Young Glory's 2014/15 Season.

22 Oct 2014

Teams from Australia and New Zealand have picked up Gold, Silver and Finalist spots in the first round of Young Glory 2014/15 - the international advertising awards competition which test teams across 8 months and 8 briefs set by 8 different judges.

Round 1 judge was 72andSunny Amsterdam ECD Carlo Cavallone, who tasked participants with using technology to address obesity issues. He handed out 6 awards to the ANZ region.

"I was really happy with the work, in general," said Cavallone. A lot of people had similar ideas so I favoured those that had something more in terms of engagement, craft, and also those that could actually be made."

The Round 1 winners now have a headstart on winning Young Glory overall. The competition runs each month from September 2014 to April 2015. The overall winners from the Student and Professional category will then be flown to Montreal where they will be honoured at the C2 commerce + creativity conference.
