Area 23, an FCB Health Network Company, continued its impressive showing at Cannes, garnering the Grand Prix in Innovation — Early Stage Technology for 'See Sound.'

This is possible because it was trained from the sound data of more than 2 million YouTube clips. The Grand Prix adds to the campaign’s one Gold, one Silver and one Bronze Lion to date.
