The record number of entries shows the importance of these awards. They showcase remarkable work brimming with bold ideas, creativity and beautiful execution. Your participation has made this year's awards truly outstanding.

These awards are about more than just trophies. They celebrate the great work in out of home media, and honour the brilliant people behind it, wherever they are around the world and at any stage in their career.  This shines a beacon inspiring, challenging and motivating us to do ever-better work that serves our clients and grows our medium.

It is a privilege to chair the judging panel, and in particular to select the Chair's Award. Once again this highlights a piece of work that brilliantly combines technology and creativity in a deceptively simple way that is scalable and has a powerful impact.

Choosing between so many exceptional entries is no easy task. I give my heartfelt thanks to our expert judging panel who generously gave their time, expertise and discernment to picking our winners. 

Based on these awards, I know that out of home media is in great health and our best days are ahead of us. I look forward to celebrating the winners!”

It was great to see so many world-class entries from all around the world, not just the more developed territories. It sends a clear message that OOH is a place where creatives from all over the world can come to experiment, innovate and get recognised on a world stage. Congratulations to the winners and I can't wait for next year.”
