Join us next week when we open the doors of UK House at Cannes Lions on July 8 & 9 for a very special two days of creative inspiration.
It is FREE to attend and is your chance to meet and hear from amazing speakers from companies including Cannes Lions winners Aardman Studios, adam&eveDDB and the Royal Shakespeare Company.
UK House will then go on a country-by-country tour – meeting up with some of the world’s biggest markets for creative services – from China to USA to India. It builds on the UK’s success at Cannes Lions and is part of the UK Advertising Export Group‘s ‘UK Advertising, Made Global’ campaign and most importantly the UK Government’s GREAT campaign. UK House will provide more British businesses than ever with the chance to promote their services on the world stage.
DCMS Culture Minister Caroline Dinenage said: “I’m delighted to once again see the great success of the UK’s creative industries recognised at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. Our brilliant advertising industry is something to be proud of and will continue to make important contributions to our economy as we build back better from the pandemic.”
