    Said Rajesh Kejriwal, Founder CEO of Kyoorius: “With almost twice as many entries as last year, the jury members were tasked with an immense responsibility to recognise and award all outstanding work submitted to the awards. We’d like to congratulate all the Baby Elephant winners – This is cause for celebration in itself, given Kyoorius and D&AD’s stringent criteria.”

     

    The Blue Elephant is recognised as a symbol of the very highest creative achievement, notes a communique, adding: Kyoorius Awards have no winning tier structure - no gold, silver or bronze, and it is the jury’s prerogative to award one or multiple Blue Elephants in any one category, whereas none in another, if entries are not up to the mark. Alongside the winner all nominations will be featured in the Kyoorius Advertising Awards Annual – distributed to over 5000 corporates and creatives across India – providing an invaluable and unrivaled source of creative inspiration.

    Kyoorius, in association with D&AD, announced that the 2015 Kyoorius Advertising & Digital Awards jury sessions will be open to the public. Kyoorius will offer jury tours from 29th April to 1st May, and creative professionals also have the opportunity to interact and learn from the jury members, through a series of Kyoorius FYIdays which will also be held over the three days.

     

    The 2015 Kyoorius Advertising & Digital Awards jury sessions will take place from 29th April until 2nd May at Indian School of Design & Innovation at Lower Parel in Mumbai. Unlike other awards shows, all jury members gather in Mumbai to review, discuss and recognize the best work entered over an intensive session. Last year, Kyoorius opened its doors to professionals, media and the community at large to observe jury members debate over entries as well as peruse some of the most cutting edge work in advertising and digital produced. This year, they have continued the tradition once again and made the sessions more interactive through the Kyoorius FYIdays.

     

    Jury tours will be offered at 10am, 2.30pm and 5.30pm on 29th April, 30th April and 1st May. Kyoorius FYIdays are led by specialist speakers on a defined subject as a series of seminars, workshops or training sessions. With a limited attendance of 80 people — Kyoorius FYIday becomes a perfect platform to interact more directly with the speaker, industry leaders, and peers.

     

    There will be five FYIday sessions, the schedule is as follows:

     

    29th April Day1

    9 – 945am: Tim Doherty – Chief Creative Officer, Isobar China

    6 – 645pm: Vicki Maguire – Deputy Executive Creative Director, Grey London

    Rajesh Kejriwal, Founder CEO of Kyoorius, said, “Kyoorius and D&AD are committed to providing the Indian creative community a completely neutral and transparent platform. These tours allow anyone to observe exactly what happens at the Kyoorius Awards jury sessions and be a part of the action.

     

    At the same time, we strive to create opportunities to inform and stimulate local talent. This year we’ve introduced a series of FYIdays conducted by our Advertising & Digital Awards jury members – a chance to meet and interact with some of the most respected creative minds in the world.
