The International ANDY Awards is the first major show of the year and has, for over 60 years, stood as one of the industry’s most prestigious accolades for creative excellence. The ANDYs are celebrated for recognizing innovation, craft, and bravery in advertising, and are known as a reliable indicator of the year’s best work.
The awards are idea-based and accept submissions across all mediums, with entries judged through three core lenses: Craft, Reset/Innovation, and Bravery. This structure creates an equal playing field, as there are no rigid categories that could limit creative expression. Instead, it ensures that every entry is judged based on its merit and impact.
In line with its commitment to transparency and education, The ANDYs have reimagined the awards process, allowing entrants to receive real-time feedback from top creative leaders in an open, integrated judging environment. This approach not only enhances the fairness of the process but also promotes a deeper understanding of what drives exceptional creative work.
Renowned for its high-caliber jury, the ANDY Awards consistently reflects the leadership and innovation shaping the advertising industry. With a unified group of influential creative leaders, the awards maintain an unmatched standard of excellence.
Introducing the stellar lineup of the ANDY Awards 2025 Jury led by jury chair, Anselmo Ramos, Co-Founder and Creative Chairman of GUT. This powerhouse group of the world’s leading creatives will come together as one integrated jury to review entries across criteria. With a single panel of Jury Presidents, your work will benefit from deep, insightful discussions that elevate the judging process.
