INM is delighted to sponsor the print category again of the IAPI Cannes Young Lions Competition. I am delighted to be judging this year’s competition in the print category.
For those of you that weren’t able to join me at the launch – the most important take-away from the launch is that IAPI are bringing the national heat more in line with the international competition. Entrants will only have 48 hours over a weekend to respond to the brief. In Cannes you actually only get 24 hours to respond. The dates for the competition will be 22-24th February. Teams must register before 22nd February. All team members must be 30 years of age or younger, born on or after 22 June 1988 and resident in Ireland.

So what am I looking for?
I am looking for any print idea but I will prioritise breakthrough ideas, ideas that have never be done before, that push the boundaries of what is possible.
In INM we are in an unique position as we have over 100 years experience in print and our own state of the art printing facility. We will bring the best in our business to turn your big idea into a reality.
Why should you submit to this category?
In INM we believe not just in ideas but in execution. The winning entry in this category gets the full support from INM including printing and distribution in the Irish Independent nationwide.
So that idea you might have, might just be the one that gets printed and distributed nationwide.
Some inspiration.
This is the winning entry from last year. A see through ad which we printed for SUAS.
The two-sided newspaper ad contains a story, half of which was printed on one page and the other half is printed on the back. By holding the page up to the light you could see the full ad, unlocking a powerful message
Why the awards are important to INM.
Young Lions represent the future of our industry and our country. With this competition we have an opportunity to send a message to the world that the best creative and innovative talent lives here. At INM we are here to help young creatives execute their big ideas and spread their message.
