Promo & activation proved to be the most fruitful of the Cannes Lions shortlists released on the first day of the festival.

Four nominations were received in the category yesterday, with DDB Dubai’s ‘Conversations’ for Al Manzil School, JWT Cairo’s ‘Fakka’ for Vodafone, JWT Dubai’s ‘Bookends’ for Kinokuniya, and Memac Ogilvy Label’s ‘Mobilising the 12th man’ all making the grade.
