SomeOne’s co-founder now sits on the top table of D&AD — The Creative Industry Oscars.
After an international vote and a little lobbying, SomeOne’s co-founder has been elected to the giddy heights of the Executive Committee for the ‘Oscars of the Creative Industry’
Becoming a Trustee of the charity — Simon now sits with a chosen few to decide the future direction of Design, Digital & Advertising’s leading award scheme.
Thanks to all of you who voted!
As D&AD itself says: ‘D&AD – home of the talented and skilled, the imaginative and the curious, the restless and the bloody-minded. Commercially savvy, sometimes romantic, often cynical and occasionally rather weird. A source of information and ideas: of professional development, support and inspiration, interesting people to talk and nice things to look at. All creative life is here.’
Of course, the primary aim is for Simon to guide D&AD to stay progressive, interesting and rewarding the very best in creativity… however, it also means he will be even more exposed to the very cutting edge of all things creative and exciting — which can’t be bad for SomeOne and our clients!
He’s not hanging about either… chairing the next D&AD lecture on ‘Creativity within the Charity sector’ on the 20th of September at the Hospital Club in Covent Garden… pop over to the D&AD website for tickets. Should be an interesting night.
