Says juror Rob Belgiovane, group chief creative officer, BWM Dentsu: “The Tambuli awards are entirely focused on one of the most important assets a brand can have these days….a conscience.

“They confirm that sales and desirability can and should be linked to the greater good and that when they are linked in fresh and exciting ways brands win but so too does humanity.”

Says China’s CK Tan: “The role that brands play in society, in business and in culture has never been more important. So kudos to Tambuli for recognizing creative and effective brands with purpose. I can’t wait to see the winning work that will guide the industry towards a more positive future.”

The pioneer award show globally that honors creative and effective brands with purpose, the APAC Tambuli Awards celebrates brands that show the seamless integration of creativity + purpose + results. Case study entries must demonstrate how brands uplift society, create positive change, and correlate purpose with purchase.

The APAC Tambuli Awards is not an award on charity, advocacy, pro bono, or CSR advertising, even if those campaigns are welcome and encouraged to enter. The award, however, focuses on mainstream brand campaigns that celebrate humanity, inspire purpose, and deliver results.

Deadline for submission of entries is on March 29, 2018. The complete list of categories and entry form are available at www.tambuliawards.asia.
