Hemant Shringy: Jury President of Brand Experience Lotus & Direct Lotus
Hemant Shringy, Chief Creative Officer of BBDO India in Mumbai, joined the agency in 2012. His works have been awarded for their creativity and effectiveness, but are also known for influencing positive social change.

He was named South Asia Person of the Year, by Campaign Asia in 2017 and 2021, and was ranked #13 most awarded ECD in the world by the Big One Report in 2017.

“It’s a privilege to be Jury President at ADFEST 2022. It’s always thrilling to see the works that reflect what makes our diverse region so unique. The pandemic has affected the ways we live and interact, so I really look forward to seeing how brands have pivoted to come up with not just creative ideas but creative solutions in the Brand Experience & Direct categories to reach consumers amid these challenges. The work done in this period could redefine the category”, says Shringy.

Wuthisak Anarnkaporn: Jury President of Film Craft Lotus and New Director Lotus
Wuthisak Anarnkaporn, Film Director and Founder of Factory01 in Bangkok, made his directorial debut in 2011 and has since accumulated various awards. “Un”, as Anarnkaporn is more commonly known, is an innovative director known for his comedic genius and impeccable direction.
