LIA names the 2024 Jury Presidents; Includes Joji Jacob, Yasu Sasaki and Malcolm Poynton
London International Awards (LIA), now in their 39th year, has named their 2024 Jury Presidents. LIA is bringing the top industry people to Las Vegas to chair their jury panels from 29th September through 7th October 2024.
The integrity of every jury under their respective Jury Presidents will set the creative benchmark for 2024, as well as, elevate the quality of the work for the industry at-large.
Barbara Levy, President of LIA, said: “What the LIA jurors do in the judging rooms is serious business. That’s why we spend weeks choosing our Jury Presidents. You just have to look at the list to see the diverse talent among our Presidents. Each of them highly respected by their peers, talented creative people who have and will continue to drive the industry to greater heights. Mediocrity is not in their vocabulary or portfolio. They know great storytelling; they can tell the difference between persuasion and pure hype. The result: the best body of work from 2024 that will re-energize and inspire the industry.”
Terry Savage, LIA Chairperson, added: “Leadership of any jury is critical to the outcome. LIA prides itself in having great Jury Presidents, who understand not just the work but also the cultural nuances associated with any Global Award Show.”
Approximately 200 jury members, from around the globe, will convene in Las Vegas to be part of the judging process. All rounds of judging are done onsite at the Encore @ Wynn Hotel. Every juror is required to see every piece of work in their respective category. These panels decide on the Gold, Silver and Bronze Statue Winners, as well as, the Finalists. Each panel has the discretion to award a Grand LIA.
As there is no off-site pre-judging, all judges are fully involved from the beginning to the end, so everyone is privy to the final results before they are published.
