Droga5

So a week or so ago, this happened. On stage. Talking about whether in-house agencies and creative agencies can ever play nice. At Cannes Lions. With my friend and absolute legend, Nicole Taylor from the LEGO Group. We told stories about working together – the good, the really good, the would-do-it-differently-next-time. And people built ducks. We also asked everyone – in-house agency, creative agency, client, whoever – not to forget to play. Because playful collaborations lead to good work. But also, more amazing experiences for our people. And don’t we all want more of that? (Oh, we also told everyone that kids love farts… but you may’ve had to be there for that.) This was a career high for me - and I'm grateful for all the help we had along the way and all the claps we've had since. Corks away.

Our CEO David Droga shares his unique perspective on what's happening at the intersection of creativity & technology at #CannesLions2024.

“You’ll have to challenge, be challenged, compromise, be compromised – but if you all know and agree what you’re aiming for – you’ll not only get there, but you’ll absolutely enjoy the ride as well.”   Our very own Jen Speirs and Nicole Taylor, SVP and Head of Agency at the LEGO Group, took the stage at the Forum at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity this afternoon to share their perspective on whether in-house agencies and creative agencies can play nice. They brought a raptured audience through their key learnings from Our Lego Agency (OLA) and Droga5 working together on the Play is Your Superpower campaign.   Accenture UK & Ireland Accenture Song   #CannesLions2024 #RadicallyUnique
