Addressing the event, Arun Srinivas, Jury Chairperson and Managing Director & Country Head, Meta India said, "It’s been a privilege and an honour to go through hundreds of campaigns across multiple creatives and sectors. It truly is a testament to the creative excellence that our country has always been known for. Having been a marketer on the other side and now working with one of the leading digital platforms, it’s incredible to see how creative excellence has kept pace with changing times. This year, we also added a digital leg to understand how brands across campaigns are excelling in storytelling — one of the key factors, along with creative quality and messaging clarity, in deciding these awards. It’s great to see both homegrown and new-age brands continuing to achieve their objectives through impactful creative storytelling."

What makes them unique is the integrity of the process — real campaigns shortlisted by editors and judged by top advertisers, the very people who approve great ideas every day. As we celebrate the 10th edition, we’re proud to honour work that not only drives business but uses communication as a force for good. Tonight, we celebrate the power of ideas, the brilliance of execution, and the collaboration that defines Indian advertising."
