Philip Thomas, CEO of Cannes Lions, said on Monday 29 March 2010, "We are seeing more and more delegates arriving at the beginning of the Cannes Week when the Direct, PR and Promo & Activation Lions are awarded, and for a very good reason. Among these sections, you can find the future of communications, with work spanning all media, embracing digital and offering clients innovative thinking. We look forward to working with these jury members as they undertake the challenging task of sorting through thousands of entries and awarding the Lions."
