Mindshare's Emery Named Media Lions Jury Chief, Says Everything Begins/Ends With Media

Nick Emery, Global CEO of GroupM’s Mindshare, has been named the media jury president for the 2015 Cannes Lions awards.

In a statement, Emery said the jury’s role is “to champion media at its very best -- not just the glitz and glamour, but the connection of data, insight and execution that makes media so compelling.”

Everything today begins and ends in media. Media is fame and money, ideas and accountability, Hollywood and ‘A Beautiful Mind.’ Our duty, and what Cannes Lions should represent, is the challenging of the status quo, the provocation of creating new things and not just counting what we already know. Cannes Lions is a celebration of technology, content and invention, and the Media Lions sits at the centre of that world.”
