Cannes Lions, the International Festival of Creativity, has announced the presidents that will lead juries at the 2015 edition of the awards.
Terry Savage, Lions Festivals’ chairman, chairman, said, "We have always selected the most awarded, respected global creative leaders to guide our juries. This year, it is particularly exciting to see so many women numbered among that elite group. We are looking forward to a time when there is true gender balance in the industry and this will be unremarkable, but in the meantime the female representation is something that we are passionate about.”
