Marketing and creative advertising Amazon, Esosa Osagiede has been selected as a Juror for Print and Publishing Lions at the 2025 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.
The Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity is a global event for those working in creative communications, advertising, and related fields. It is considered the largest gathering in the advertising and creative communications industry.
Announcing this on her LinkedIn page, an excited Esosa said, “I’m incredibly humbled and honoured (still a little numb!) to be a Print & Publishing juror at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. I can’t wait to lend my voice, share perspectives, and celebrate the best of the best creative work.”
Industry observers say that the selection of Esosa is not a surprise as she has been reshaping the creative landscape with fearless ideas and game-changing storytelling at Insight Publicis where she plies her trade.
With about two decades in advertising, she has mastered the art of crafting campaigns that don’t just capture attention but demand it.
From breaking barriers as a copywriter to leading high-impact creative teams, Esosa thrives on pushing boundaries. She’s landed global accounts, spearheaded award-winning campaigns, and earned industry recognition, including Most Outstanding Creative Director (2023 & 2024) – WIMCA, Creative Personality of the Year (2024), Creative Game Changer Award – SHE WINS and Grand Prix Winner – LAIF (LAGOS ADVERTISING AND IDEAS FESTIVAL).
In 2023, she became the only West African creative selected for the Cannes Lions See It Be It program, standing out among 800+ global applicants. That life-changing moment reaffirmed her mission: to elevate creativity, amplify diverse voices, and mentor the next generation of disruptors.
Now, as Creative Director at Insight Publicis, she leads a powerhouse team delivering bold, culture-shaping work that defies expectations.
