2020 Hall of Fame inductee

The Loeries Hall of Fame was introduced in 2007 to recognise a lifetime of achievement and support of the creative industry, this years inductee to the prestigious hall of fame is... Boniswa Pezisa, Net#work BBDO’s group chief executive.

"There's not a lot of people in the industry who genuinely like the industry, the work and the creative people. You can see Boniswa's heart in everything she does. She is a really worthy recipient of this accolade." says Fran Luckin, Loeries chairperson.

"The advertising industry Hall of Fame, wow! At this moment, I'm truly grateful to God Almighty. To my ancestors, who dreamt a bigger dream than I would have ever dreamt for myself. For me to be inducted in this Hall of Fame is a miracle," says Pezisa.

She goes on to give thanks to all the partners at Net#work BBDO, "On your shoulders I stood and with your permission I served the industry that I love and the profession I so dearly belong to."

This Hall of Fame is bigger than anything I've ever dreamt.

"At this time of Covid-19, it is our time to actually stand up and shine again. We are the crazy ones who galvanise people. We inspire people. We motivate people. We change minds. We change perceptions. And this is the time for that"

"This is the time for us to market, to communicate and take Africa to the world. This amazing, young, youthful, beautiful continent that is creative, that has a cultural vibe like no other - it is the time for us to take it to the world and showcase to the world who we are and what we are made of"

It's our time to preach joy, to inspire the world to a better way of living and of doing things.
