Glory for Australia as Host/Havas Sydney’s ‘Palau Pledge’ for Palau Legacy Project takes out Titanium Grand Prix; Tourism Australia ‘Dundee’ via Droga5 New York scores Titanium Lion

Host/Havas Sydney’s ‘Palau Pledge’ for Palau Legacy Project has just been awarded the ultimate Cannes Lions accolade – the  Titanium Grand Prix.

This is Host/Havas Sydney’s third Grand Prix for ‘Palau Pledge’ at the Festival, which was created with Song Zu, THE POOL COLLECTIVE, Yukfoo and Red Agency.

“It won our hearts, not because of the good it did but because of the good it was. If our job is capturing attention and transferring it from mind to heart, ‘Palau Pledge’ was constructed as an incredibly effective vehicle. Truly inspiring work that will have a lasting legacy,” said Titanium Lions Jury president: Colleen DeCourcy, Chief Creative Officer, Wieden+Kennedy.

Tourism Australia and Droga5 New York have scored one of five Titanium Lions for ‘Dundee: The Son of Legend Returns Home’ via Australia’s Revolver/Will O’Rourke, Biscuit Filmworks, Second Child, UM New York, UM Sydney, Kovert Creative and Exile Editorial.

Also scoring a Titanium Lion is Aussie expat Max McKeon from Saatchi & Saatchi New York, for Tide’s ‘It’s A Tide Ad’, which he co-created as associate creative director and copywriter.
