Pablo Tesio and David Perez de Quevedo To Represent Serviceplan Spain at Cannes Lions 2022

May. 09, 2022

The creative duo formed by Pablo Tesio (Senior Copywriter at Serviceplan Spain) and David Pérez de Quevedo (Art Director, Serviceplan Spain) have won the 6th edition of #PoweredByTweets, Twitter's social projects accelerator, which seeks to reward the ideas of young talents designed to change the world, in collaboration with the Young Lions competition of the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 2022.

After an online hiatus during the pandemic, the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 2022 returns to Cannes in the South of France, although the final competition between countries will be held online before Cannes Lions, where an idea will be worked on in 24 hours to present to the jury.

The challenge, promoted by the consulting firm Scopen, was to develop a project in 48 hours to give visibility and response to a social problem that we face today through Twitter, as the main communication channel. Tesio and de Quevedo chose as the cross-cutting theme of their idea "freedom of expression and civil liberty", among the different topics offered were: Internet security and education, equity, environmental conservation and sustainability or crisis response and emergencies.

"#CryptoSpeech" is the name that the creative duo chose for their idea valued by a jury composed of; Kika Samblás (Partner & Managing Director of Scopen); Emilio Pila (Head of Marketing at Twitter); Mónica Moro (President of CdeC), Beto Nahmad (Executive Creative Director of VCCP); Elena Bule (Head of Communications at Twitter); Jorge Martínez (Founding Partner of Help! Ideas Buenas); Tania Riera (Creative Director of Shackleton); Camino Rojo (Head of Public Policy, Government and Philanthrop at Twitter); Emily Ross (Head of Twitter Next); Marta Sáez (CTO of OMG); Dee Wood (Head of Twitter Next Lab); and Ana Zumalacérregui (Director and founder of True).
