My first time at Cannes

“Would you like to go to Cannes?” The words anyone in the advertising industry wants to hear from their boss’ mouth. And this year, I heard it. With some luckily-timed pitches, I was drafted onto the St Luke’s team headed to the 2019 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity at the last minute. Like 99% of the ad industry, I had never been to Cannes. But I’d heard about it. The sun, the parties, the rosé, and, inevitably, the awards. I’d seen senior management swan of

St Luke’s launches Birra Moretti’s summer campaign!

In 2018, Birra Moretti inspired the UK to make time for what matters by spending time with the people you love over a beer and good food.

We’re a long way from peak purpose

As the rose hangovers from last week fade, in our industry one debate refuses to go away – is purpose dead? While ideas like Savlon’s Healthy Hands Chalk are rightly lauded, more generally the feeling seems to be that ‘peak purpose’ is behind us. Mark Ritson is lacing up his dancing shoes ready to do a little jig on its grave. At St Luke’s we’ve always believed in business as a force for change, so naturally we couldn’t disagree more. Yes, cynical ‘awards bait’ from brands th

Sorrell’s vision of the future of the big six holding companies doesn’t seem that appealing from whe

St Luke’s were fortunate enough to be present at the Drum Bar in Cannes last Thursday where Sir Martin Sorrell was interviewed by Stephen Lepitak, the Editor of the Drum. It was an incredible coup for the Drum gang to get the most talked about man in advertising to do his first appearance since certain allegations came to light in Cannes with them. The content of his interview has already been picked over and analyzed in depth by far greater journalistic brains than me. The f
