Innovation may be a tired word. There is no doubt that innovation has become an overused and confusing buzzword. It is riddled with an excessive number of meanings from authors, dictionaries, experts and our personal experience.

But Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity is without doubt my favourite event of the year.

People tend to remember even the fine details of these events, they feel good talking about it and remember it with fond memories. The pleasant experience that the targeted audience has, the fulfilment of the agenda, and how the event hits all the right chords with all the attendees is what makes an event successful.
