AUCKLAND, Monday: Life returns to normal in the comms world Downunder today with some significant news items to welcome you back to M+AD-Daily …

Colenso BBDO chief creative officer Levi Slavin (the first and only NZ-based adman to win a Black Pencil) has been appointed as the president of the Radio & Audio jury at the D&AD Awards 2020.

“Women continue to challenge in traditional male roles – the latest being Australia’s Women Leading Tech Awards.”
