Spikes Asia 2010 Reduces Delegate Registration Fees

Spikes Asia, a collaboration between Cannes Lions and Haymarket providing the region’s growing creative and advertising industry with a platform to network and exchange ideas, will offer new lower delegate registration fees this year to give the opportunity for a wider range of delegates to attend and benefit from the event. An Early Bird Discount will also be introduced.


Responding to the industry, Spikes Asia will be condensed into an intense and insightful event ensuring that delegates do not have to spend too much time away from their business whilst benefiting from an action-packed and inspirational world-class programme. The Festival will coincide with the week of the Singapore F1 Grand Prix, giving those who wish to attend the race the opportunity of staying on.

Terry Savage, Chairman of Cannes Lions, said, “Our regional festival strategy is aimed at enabling people who may not get to Cannes to experience the thought leadership and inspiration that comes through our high-calibre seminar programme and to experience and learn from the best in the world. This new pricing policy at Spikes Asia will enable a wider spectrum of people right through the industry to attend.”
