There are slim pickings for Australia in the Mobile Lions with Melbourne Writers Festival ‘Stories unbound’ from JWT Melbourne and Australian Defence Force ‘Mobile Medic’ from GPY&R Melbourne the only entries making the cut.

In the Effectiveness Lions only one Australian entry has made it through: the Bundaberg ‘Watermark’ campaign from Leo Burnett, Sydney. Obviously a big disappointment for Clemenger BBDO Melbourne, which had high hopes for NAB “Break Up’.
