Hello AgencySpy Readers!

After a hectic week of panel discussions, pool parties and endless warm Mediterranean nights on the Carlton’s infamous terrace, it all boils down to the much anticipated final gala in the Palais’ Grand Audi Auditorium. Highlights of the evening: MJZ won the Palm d’Or, again. Wieden + Kennedy was deemed the advertising agency of the year. BETC Paris won the Film Craft Grand Prix for ‘Bear’ for Canal+. And, the highly sought after Titanium Grand Prix went to R/GA New York for ‘Nike+ Fuelband’. Check out the full list of winners here.

And now, I leave you with a look back at some of the most memorable moments of the week:

Biggest Breakthrough:
Caviar entering the Palm D’or list, finally. Bravo!

Most Anticipated Success:
Chipotle Back to the Start, Branded Content and Entertainment Lions Grand Prix.  One of the sweetheart campaigns of the year for its beautiful execution and heartfelt message to support farming families in the United States. Check out the case study here.

And, if you haven’t yet, download Willie Nelson’s frank, raspy version of “The Scientist” here. All proceeds go to Chipotle’s Cultivate Foundation that, as their site explains, is committed to creating a more sustainable and healthful food supply and to raising awareness concerning food issues.
