Tombras and Mother Walk Away With More Lions on Cannes Final Day

Indie Agency News members Tombras and Mother took one last lap on the final day of the Cannes Lions.

Tombras, winning its first Lions in the agency’s history, took home gold and two bronze in the PR category for Sweethearts while Mother grabbed two gold and silver for Uber Eats in film. (Ed. note — Mother was ROBBED by only getting silver for the genius “Best Friends.” Should have been Grand Prix.)

Meanwhile, Rethink kept popping up on the winners board across the final day’s categories to pick up this year’s Independent Agency and Network of the Year. (Ed. note — Take a bow, Aaron Starkman and team.)

Some new indie names emerging from the final day include tgthr, Mumbai, an indie founded by former Dentsu leader Aalap Desai. Additionally, Choojai And Friends, Bangkok, Wolf Bkk, Bangkok (a highly-awarded indie in the APAC region) and Sour Bangkok made the winners list.

Topping the Dan Wieden Titanium list was Wieden + Kennedy, Portland, winning the Grand Prix for DoorDash-All-the-Ads.
