The first ever season of Young Glory has come to a close after 8 months, 8 briefs and 8 judges from international agencies like AKQA, Wieden+Kennedy, BBH New York, OgilvyOne India and R/GA.

The most recent and final round was judged by freshly appointed global CCO of R/GA Nick Law, who described the entries as "way beyond classic advertising".

Says Law: "The great transition our industry is going through will be inherited by an impressive group of people."

One of the winning Aussies, Daniel Grech, also represented Australia in the Cannes young lions comp for film this year.
