The awards aim to redefine what is traditionally perceived as ‘normal’ for the advertising industry.
Named after Frances Gerety, the copywriter who coined the slogan "a diamond is forever", the Gerety Awards recognises global talent, mentors and allies within advertising.
"The first of the jury we are announcing today sets the stage for Gerety 2020. Next year’s jury of highly-respected agency and brand leaders from around the world will once again reinforce our mission. We are excited to see what our jury will choose as the best in advertising next year,” said the Gerety founders.
