Eurobest 2012 – open for delegate’s registration

Creativity

Eurobest, the premier event and largest gathering for Europe’s creative advertising and communications industry, is now open for delegate registration.

Celebrating 25 years of European creative excellence, Eurobest will once again be held in Lisbon 28, 29 and 30 November 2012. The three-day festival returns to the São Jorge Cinema.

Eurobest provides an annual platform of learning, inspiration, celebration and networking for Europe’s community of creatives, copywriters, art directors, planners, media agency executives, marketers, account managers, agency heads, producers, directors, social media experts, young creatives and students. Participants can enjoy an intense schedule of world-class seminars and hands-on workshops, view the best creative brand communications currently produced in Europe, network with Europe’s most creative thinkers during evening events, and honour and celebrate the 2012 winners at the Eurobest Awards and After Party.

Delegates registering before 26 October can enjoy an early bird discount saving Euro 100 on the price of a full delegate package and pay just Euro 390 for a full delegate pass. Registrations made after this date will cost Euro 490. Additionally, there are reduced registration packages for Young Creatives under 28 years of age for Euro 310 and for students 23 years old or younger at Euro 99.

This year Eurobest launches a Young Marketers Academy, a three-day programme specifically targeted to marketers and brand managers aged 30 years or younger working within a client organisation. The registration fee is Euro 390.

Europe remains a powerhouse of creativity, but for the continent to continue to maintain its position, the industry needs the space to debate and explore new ways of thinking and the latest technological changes. Eurobest provides this unique platform for Europe’s creative community in brand communications
