This is a call which must be heard. Why don’t more advertising agencies from the region participate in the Cannes Advertising Lions 2007 advertising awards?
Some agencies from Dubai and Lebanon have won awards in the past, and several pieces of work seen last year in various media are worth entering. So, why not more?
This impressive advertisement, by John Mani of The Classic Partnership in Dubai, was published in Campaign Middle East to promote the festival.
So, here’s a call from us at mediaME to all advertising agencies: “Save the Lions from extinction in the Middle East”!

Recognizing the importance of the User Generated Content revolution, and how users are controlling the digital age we live in, TIME magazine selected ‘YOU’ as the Person of The Year.
This comes following the massive successes, and buyouts, of YouTUBE, MySpace and others.
TIME says such companies have succeeded in “seizing the reins of the global media, for founding and framing the new digital democracy, for working for nothing and beating the pros at their own game.”
‘YOU’ beat some tough competition this year for Person of the Year from the likes of Iran’s President Ahmandinejad, China’s President Hu Jintao, North Korean’s Kim Jon Il, and President Bush.
