The Prize will be judged by a group of senior client-side marketers and agency-side strategy experts. The judging panel will be announced in the coming weeks.
The deadline for entries is 16 July 2015, and the winner will be announced in November. All cases that win an award will be showcased in the Asia Strategy Report, a study of smart strategic thinking in the region published after the competition has ended.
