We’re honored to see The Final Copy of Ilon Specht in ADWEEK’s Cannes Lions 2025 frontrunners list. This 17-minute documentary, created by L'Oréal Paris, McCann and TRAVERSE32 and directed by Oscar®-winner Ben Proudfoot, is a tribute to a revolutionary voice in our industry. Ilon Specht was a young McCann copywriter who reshaped beauty advertising—and cultural expectations—forever with “Because I’m Worth It.” Her final copy was a beginning for generations to come. And thank you Liz Taylor for your powerful words. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/e-GVejDU #TruthWellTold

Big night in London at the D&AD Awards! We’re celebrating 16 total wins and feeling incredibly proud of our brilliant teams across the globe. A special shoutout to Xbox, McCann London, and Craft London for picking up a coveted Yellow Pencil for the Everyday Tactician — a true example of innovation and impact (yet another award to add to the overflowing shelf!). And to The Last Prisoner Project and McCann New York's who won 2 Wood Pencils for their critically important work - The Pen to Right History. Also on the D&AD stage, our Chief Creative Officer Javier Campopiano shared powerful thoughts on humanity, creativity, and AI. His message was clear: “I’m not a robot.” Because at McCann, human truths are — and always will be — at the heart of great creative work. Massive congrats to all our people and clients! #TruthWellTold

6 more reasons to be proud, alongside 4 fearless clients. Last night we earned six golds at The International ANDY Awards, the industry institution that puts bravery first when it comes to celebrating creative ideas. Xbox’s The Everyday Tactician, via McCann London and Craft Worldwide London, continued its winning streak with gold recognition in the Bravery and Idea categories. The teams also scored gold in Idea for “Cheeky Controller.” But there were more golds to go around! Mastercard’s Room for Everyone from McCANN Poland, Samsung's “Throwback Deals” from MRM Brasil, and Arla Foods/Puck’s “Selfless Shelves” from FP7 McCann all earned gold honors in the Idea category! Bravo to our clients and teams for their courageous and tireless efforts to realize creative ideas with big impact. #TruthWellTold
