Juries see 50% female representation - the highest in the awards’ history

Dubai Lynx has today announced the names of the jurors who will judge, award and benchmark the best creative work from across the MENA region. 

About the jurors, Philip Thomas, chairman, Dubai Lynx, said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming such a talented group of experts from around the world to judge this year’s awards. A 50% female representation is our highest to date and something we’re particularly proud to be driving. The juries are now tasked with setting the benchmark for the creative community in MENA and we’re excited to see the outcome.” 

Following in the footsteps of Dubai Lynx’s sister festival Eurobest, which successfully held remote judging last year, the Dubai Lynx jurors will meet remotely to award and discuss the work. Thomas said, “We have created a remote judging experience that’s as close to the physical judging as we can make it. It’s a crucial part of all of our LIONS awards; a human experience but also a rigorous and robust process.”
