Our Cannes Lions reporters with Unilever’s Keith Weed

Cannes Lions launched a new award this year called the Glass Lion. The honor focuses on creative work that examines gender equality and prejudice. As such, many folks at the festival had these topics on their minds for discussion. Here’s part 2 of our report from Cannes:

  • As one of our final events before leaving town, Unilever generously hosted an afternoon lunch for their partners at La Guerite on the Island de Marguerite. (Thanks to Keith Weed and the whole Unilever team for a terrific afternoon.) In addition to crafting “brands for life,” they’re definitely crafting great partnerships, too.
