René Eugster represents Switzerland on the jury of the John Caples Award

Over a thousand entries from almost 50 countries were subjected to an intensive jury process at the John Caples International Award in New York last week. René Eugster, CD of the agency at Altenrhein Airport, represented Switzerland this year. Only creative directors or creative directors with at least ten years' experience are accepted as members of the final jury. The jury became aware of Eugster because he and his agency are the only Swiss to have already won a precious metal at the John Caples International Award and achieved a further place in the final. Founded in 1978, the John Caples International Award is considered to be the world's most prestigious competition for creative direct marketing alongside Cannes Direct. This year's finalists will be announced at the end of December 2006 and the winners will be announced on March 8, 2007 at the Caples Night.
