The India Chapter of the International Advertising Association (IAA) is inviting entries for the third edition of its coveted IndIAA awards. Launched in 2015 and positioned as the awards “for real creative advertising, backed by real budgets”, they will once more have an all-star jury of CEO’s who have judged advertising in the real world. The jury Chair for the last two years were Harish Manwani of Unilever in 2015 and D. Shivakumar of Pepsi in 2016.
Pradeep Guha, Chairman IndIAA awards said “Advertising campaigns that were released between 1st July 2016 and 30th June 2017 will be honored in multiple product and service categories. To qualify for the Award the campaign should have film (TV or Digital) as one of its elements. In each product or service category no more than an overall winner and a challenger brand (a new comer) would be awarded. The awards ceremony would be in Mumbai in September 2017.”
