Spikes Asia 2018 Opens for Entries with the launch of new Glass Award

Spikes Asia is where Asia Pacific’s creative community comes together for three days of inspiration, networking and celebration of creativity and effectiveness in branded communications. Opening for entries today, this year sees the addition of a new award category, Glass: The Award for Change which celebrates culture-shifting creativity.

Throughout the Festival esteemed juries review creative branded communications entries from across Asia Pacific. An evolution of the Asian Advertising Awards, launched in 1986, the Spikes Asia Awards are the region’s premier creative award, celebrating and setting the standard for inspirational work in the creative communications industry.

Introduced first at Cannes Lions in 2015, Glass: The Award for Change specifically recognises work that challenges gender inequality, imbalance or injustice and shatters stereotypical images of men and women which remain rooted in marketing messages.
