Both internal and external research done has shown that 90% of ANDY winners go on to win at other major shows’ like One Show, D&AD and Cannes Lions. This year, the organization is betting on the statistics. Winners of the ANDYs who do not subsequently win at least one other major award in the industry will be granted free entry for 2024.
