Grand jury member Imali Hettiarachchi, global brand strategy at the LEGO Group, UK, comments: "Debating world-class work with a group of incredible women from around the world was one of the best invitations I've had - thank you for the honour, Gerety Awards!"

Madonna Badger, founder and chief creative officer of Badger Agency and Grand Jury member for the USA added; "Being a part of a Gerety Award Jury is such an honor and a privilege. Frances Gerety was a legendary woman in advertising. And like most creative women, she appreciated great work no matter the gender of who created it. The work, however, is judged through a female lens, which is so unique and very important to our industry." The Gerety Awards, now in its 4th year, is the only creative prize to reward advertising campaigns that resonate most with a female audience. With judging sessions held around the world each year Gerety brings together some of the greatest creative leaders to look at work from the female lens. Rewarding all types of creative excellence regardless of who is in the credits. The big difference in comparison to other awards is that Gerety gives proof the work resonates with the world's most powerful consumers.
