MediaMonks Celebrates Success at Cannes Lions 2016

With a grand prix, four gold, one silver and eight bronze Lions, MediaMonks celebrates another successful year at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. The creative production company won awards with seven different projects for six different agencies. In total, MediaMonks was involved in a record-breaking 56 shortlists across 20 projects including 180LA’s Unfairy Tales campaign, which won the Grand Prix for Good.

Almost every MediaMonks office contributed to the total, demonstrating the effectiveness of the company's model as a global integrated production partner. MediaMonks launched its Shanghai office in Cannes last week and now has offices in nine advertising hubs around the world.

MediaMonks CEO, Victor Knaap, says: “As a production partner, we are very happy we could help lift seven incredible cases to the highest international stage. Being shortlisted for a Lion is a major sign of recognition for any piece of work so to see so many win is fantastic. To me, this year’s Cannes Festival shows how strong we’ve become across the board. MediaMonks used to be all about Cyber but this year we’ve competed in 15 Cannes categories with projects that are very different in nature and clients coming from all parts of the world. It shows that all of our global production capabilities compete at the highest international level.”
