Cannes Lions: Third juror from Switzerland nominated

The Cannes International Advertising Festival (IAF) appoints Thomas Engeli, Senior Copywriter at Fisch.Meier.Direkt, to the Direct Marketing Jury. For Matthias Luchsinger, Managing Director of Cinecom and Swiss Representative of Cannes Lions, his choice is also a tribute to the largest Swiss DM agency. The agency's performance is apparently also perceived internationally, Luchsinger informs. In addition to Engeli, Jürg Aemmer of Euro RSCG and Alexander Jaggy of Jung von Matt/Limmat will represent Switzerland as jurors in Cannes. The advertising festival will take place from June 18 to 24, 2006. In addition to the categories Film, Print, Outdoor, Cyber, Media, Direct and Radio, this year the category Sales Promotion will be awarded for the first time.
