    Cannes Lions 2014: India grabs 6 Lions in PR & Direct

    MUMBAI: It isn’t turning out to be a great show for Indian advertising agencies at the ongoing Cannes Lions 2014. While it has been a no show for India in Creative Effectiveness and Promo & Activation Lions, a few agencies have been able to get back some glory.  

    McCann Worldgroup has grabbed two Silver Lions for its campaign ‘Share My Dabba’ in the Direct category. This work was done for Happy Life Welfare with the help of Dabbawala Foundation. The campaign that aimed to feed street kids grabbed the attention of not only India’s Human Resource Minister but also inspired many other lunch services to take the initiative forward. All this was done through a ‘Share Sticker’. With this sticker the dabbawalas were alerted to dabbas that contained un-eaten food; they then shared these ‘marked’ dabbas with children in need.
