The Global Awards judging has divided itself into two distinct halves, each with its own jury – Pharma(Rx) and Health & Wellness.
“We always have our ear to the ground and are monitoring how we can improve the Global Awards,” stated Fran Pollaro, executive director of the Global Awards. “We acknowledge and understand that these two creative worlds are both striving for the highest level of creativity and innovation, but we also know that each are playing with a very different set of rules, creating two specialized juries provides the assurance that entrants from both designations will be given the attention they deserve.”
Global Awards co-chair Robin Shapiro, global president, TBWA\WorldHealth, added, “Pharma work has its own very unique set of expectations, rules, and regulations. We’re creating two juries in recognition of this important difference. We will never lower our standards but we must celebrate the work that drives our industry and our agencies.”

The Pharma(Rx) and Health & Wellness Executive Juries will be made up of chief creative officers and executive creative directors from prominent healthcare advertising agencies around the globe. The Global Awards jury selection process ensures that each entry is judged by the highest level of international talent with global knowledge and perspective from the industry. The 2017 Executive Jury will be announced in the coming weeks.
In addition to the Grand Jury’s online judging sessions and the Executive Jury live sessions in New York City, the Global Awards organises judging sessions around the globe to review digital based works and collateral materials, which can’t be judged online. These global live sessions, hosted at international healthcare communication agencies, give jurors the opportunity to examine in detail multi-paged works including: sales kits, direct mail, brochures, point of purchase displays, and annual reports.
The 2017 Global Award winners will be announced on November 16 at awards ceremonies in New York City and Sydney.
