Spikes Asia Festival of Creativity, the regional Asia-Pacific awards and festival for creative excellence in advertising and communications, will take place 15-17 September at Suntec, Singapore.

 

Over three days, attendees can look forward to an outstanding topical and inspirational seminar and workshop programme presented by industry leaders from around the world, view the best work from the region and enjoy Spikes Nights, a host of networking events such as Networking After Dark with Singaporean agencies opening their doors to delegates for an evening of fun and socialising.
