What a night! It was great to catch up with some of you at The Newsworks Awards on Thursday evening, celebrating creativity, innovation and purpose-led campaigns in news brands. John Ayling & Associates took the Grand Prix for its braille cover wrap with RNIB, with Starcom, MediaCom UK, the7stars and more also taking home awards. See the full roll call of winners here.
Elsewhere, climate remains high on the advertising industry’s agenda even after Cop27’s conclusion last week. On Wednesday, the Guardian partnered with The Media Leader to hold an online session about how the media can reduce carbon emissions. Discussions included how the industry can collaborate to create lasting and meaningful change. Also, make sure you catch any sessions you missed at the Ad Net Zero Global Summit here.
