“This year we’re going back to M&M’s roots of awarding multi-market campaigns which have successfully negotiated differences in language, culture or consumer habits, creating the best work in international media,” said C Squared managing director of Awards Danielle Redwood.

“As the only awards that celebrates international media, we’ve also brought a new focus to the subjects that matter – from the rise of the influencer to the combination of mediums to produce winning multi-platform campaigns.
