When you understand that 70% of the success of a campaign comes from the creative aspect, you work with WPP. When you realize that you need to integrate creativity and tech to deliver the creativity, you work with Ogilvy One.

BBDO Worldwide and IMPACT BBDO's Dani Richa features on Campaign Middle East's MENA Power List 2024. Dani Richa said, “In a region where the collective is as important as the individual, brands that tap into data are able to go beyond personal interactions and foster communities. Brands that listen deeply and act thoughtfully build not only customer loyalty but also advocates who feel emotionally invested in their success. This sense of community, built on trust and shared experiences, is a powerful testament to the role data can play in enriching human relationships."

Inflation, rising food costs, and AI-generated budget recipes. It's rare that brands actually have the ability to be 'relatable' to their consumers, but this campaign absolutely nails it! "The Inflation Cookbook" campaign by Dentsu Creative x Food Banks Canada | Banques alimentaires Canada is a great example of the creative way data can be utilised to create a stronger emotional connection with consumers through their everyday, real life struggles. Gen AI beautifully integrates into the app with custom recipe generation aided by #Midjourney visuals that allow the user to truly feel listened to about their specific needs and concerns. Definitely warrants a Gold Media Lion at the #CannesLions2024! #artificialintelligence #digitalmarketing #advertising #generativeai #dataanalytics #inflation

2023: No.1 in the Middle East, No.9 in the world. 2024: No.1 in the Middle East, No.7 in the world.

Every year, I go into Cannes a bit cynical, questioning whether it is all a bit performative. This year, however, I had a very different experience. Sure, there were certainly still aspects that were more spectacle than substance, but on the whole, I was inspired – by the work, by the camaraderie, and by the emphasis on true #creativity. For every benign, redundant mention of AI, there was an impassioned case made for the power of originality and unexpected creativity. I might have expected this from creative agencies, but I was most encouraged by the championing of creativity from the esteemed panel of CMO’s at Forbes' Most Influential CMO Luncheon.     Perhaps, we are collectively over the seduction of predictability and (faux) certainty. Perhaps, we are all realizing the diminishing returns of relentlessly pursued risk mitigation. Perhaps, the extremes of either dull sameness or shallow gimmicks will yield to smart, beautiful, big, bold, important ideas that build real brands and drive real business and if we are lucky, move society forward along the way.     I left Cannes feeling the renaissance has begun and that TBWA is exactly the right place to be for it, where Disruption is not a catchphrase, but an essence and a mandate.   My optimism was a direct result of spending time with Kyle Chayka, Lucia Aniello, Ben Tallon, Flau’jae Johnson, Beatrice Domond, Seth Matlins, The amazing women hosted by The Female Quotient, our ambitious clients, and my fellow Pirates.   As my partner Bruno Regalo says, a new season starts now – so may we all contribute to the renaissance and show up in Cannes next year with work that makes us proud.   Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity | TBWA\Worldwide | TBWA\Chiat\Day | Omnicom | Troy Ruhanen | Courtney Nelson | Emily Wilcox | Jen Costello | Anh-Thu Le | Kirsten Rutherford |Jacqueline Redmond | Desmond Marzette | Mark Weinstein | Hilton | Jennifer Murillo | Discover Financial Services | Ryan Ostrom | Jack in the Box | Kate Cronin | Moderna | Brandi Ray | Jane Wakely | PepsiCo    #CannesLions2024 #OmnicomCannes #TheDisruptionCompany
