The Loeries has been rewarding creativity for over 40 years. It is the most prestigious brand and communication awards in Africa and the Middle East. The award recognizes, rewards, inspires and fosters creative excellence in the advertising and brand communication industry.
Loeries Awards 2019 organisers call on agencies, studios, brands and designers to tell better stories – stories that upend stereotypes, tear down racial divides, and embrace cultural differences. The Loeries Creative Week holds from 19 to 25 August, 2019 at Durban, South Africa.
According to The Loeries on its website, “It’s not just an award. It’s about recognizing creative brilliance. Making you and me feel something, question and rethink our ways of doing. It’s about telling better stories. Stories that provoke conversation. Challenge traditions. End stereotypes. Celebrate humanity. Tear down racial divides. Embrace culture. And change the world.”
The Loeries, a non-profit company, is Africa and the Middle East’s premiere
initiative that recognises, rewards, inspires and fosters creative excellence
in the brand communication industry. As the highest accolade for creativity and
innovation across our region, the Loeries promotes and supports
creativity by helping marketers, agencies and consumers appreciate the value of
ideas and fresh thinking.
Culminating in the biggest creative gathering in Africa and the Middle
East, Loeries Creative Week Durban brings together the best innovative
minds from our industry for a festival of networking, inspiring minds and
recognising great work.
Our region’s creative economy is world-class and has great potential to grow
and to offer employment both to our talented youth. The growth occurring
throughout Africa and the Middle East is very exciting, and a major focus of
the Loeries is to increase the standard of brand communication in the
region.
