All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this. In the past, when I called myself a publicist and entrepreneur, my writing was often driven by a need to build my personal […]
Don’t miss this campaign by JWT Argentina. I didn’t know it and like everyone at Debussy, I applauded it loudly for its fantastic creativity, fresh, happy and especially brave, because it’s not easy to guess how they managed to sell this idea [...]
With 40% fewer delegates this year, as well as 20% fewer entries, the world’s most important advertising festival did not emerge unscathed from the current global crisis. There is a different atmosphere and in general, I could say, more awareness, more contact [...]
With Gold, Silver and Bronze for DDB in the first two and JWT in the third, Costa Rica accumulated a total of seven Lions in just one year between the 2008 and 2009 Cannes festivals. During the conversations of the last hours [...]

Pancho Terán, General Creative Director of TRIBU / Nazca Saatchi Saatchi, (very serious in this photo!) is a member of the jury for the New York Festival, and for this reason, we have seen him focused on his mission, which at the [...]
When Paula Guevara and Carlos Jiménez receive the brief for the Film competition in Cannes, next June 22 at 8 a.m., they will be competing against 19 pairs from around the world for a Golden Lion in the Young Creatives Film Competition. [...]
