At this years edition of the Eurobest advertising Festival in Lisbon Duval Guillaume Modem turned 9 shortlists into magic: 9 awards. The biggest ‘bad boy’ winner was Carlsberg ‘bikers’ that totalled 1 gold, 3 silver and 3 bronze awards, resulting in one of Belgiums most awarded campaigns at this edition of Eurobest. In the Media category there was also a Bronze reward for Axa ‘interactive tv-ad’ and Carlsberg’s ‘probably the best ad’. Needless to say that we are kinda happy. Muito Obrigado!
