Kuala Lumpur – One of Malaysia’s most talented Creative Directors, Ted Lim, joins ADFEST in March 2010 as Jury President for the Press Lotus & Poster Lotus categories.


As Executive Creative Director & Deputy Chairman at Naga DDB Malaysia, Lim has transformed Naga DDB into Malaysia’s most consistently awarded creative powerhouse.


“There’s something about ADFEST that makes giving up family and friends for three long days to look at thousands of ads all worthwhile. Learning and sharing with some of the sharpest creative minds in the business is rewarding, enlightening and humbling at the same time. I hope to see big ideas that will make me feel small,” says Lim who has judged at ADFEST twice before in 2005 and 2008. 


“ADFEST has become a benchmark for the region’s creative output. It’s a great platform for learning and sharing, to see what the region has been up to and compare that with what the rest of the world is doing. ADFEST also gives us a good idea of what the region will be entering in other global festivals in 2010,” he says.


Under Lim’s guidance, Naga DDB picked up Malaysia’s first D&AD Yellow Pencil and has won awards at Cannes, Clio, The One Show, AWARD, ADFEST and the Effies.


“Ted is one of Asia’s most experienced creative directors and he will undoubtedly make a very wise and knowledgeable Jury President. His appointment affirms ADFEST’s commitment to securing the world’s top creative professionals – not just in Asia but the world – to judge each year’s event,” says Jimmy Lam, President of ADFEST.
