These trophies and certificates act as symbolic tributes to the agencies that have given their talent and creativity to make our world a better place. In order receive a tribute, you have to be part of the exhibition“Great Ads for Good”.

The Cannes exhibition is made possible by the support of ACT’ive members, sponsors and partners.
