On 7 and 8 June, the Chairmen together with other 50 creatives from different European countries will meet in Barcelona (FAD Building) to award excellence among the best in graphic design and advertising from Europe.
A foreseen 900 works are expected to participate in this edition. The works have already been awarded with ‘Gold’, ‘Silver’, ‘Bronze’, or ‘Shortlist’ in their respective country’s creative club awards. For this reason, the distinctions afforded by the ADCE are considered “the Best
of the Best”.

New in the 22nd edition of The ADCE Awards 2013 is the inclusion of six new subcategories
grouped under ‘Integration and Innovation’. The incorporation of these new subcategories is intended to recognize a growing number of advertising campaigns that go beyond traditional creative formulas.

Why “Great is not good enough” The 4th edition of the ADCE Conference is certain to become the referential event for designers and advertising creatives worldwide. Under the slogan, “Great is not Good Enough”, a panel of distinguished industry professionals will unveil the winners from this year’s ADCE Awards, as well as, discuss the jury’s decision-making process.

Six different blocks around the six jury categories will focus on those works that did not merit the “Gold” distinction and the reasons why. The conference will be an open discussion that will capture the point of view of the jurors together with the participation of the audience.
