The Japan Advertisers Association (JAA) will hold the JAA Advertising Awards Seminar "Secrets to Creating Advertising that Resonates with Consumers: Insights from Three Grand Prix Winners" at Ochanomizu Sora City in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, on July 19.
Representatives from the advertisers and production staff of Sogo & Seibu, NGK Insulators, and Panasonic, who won the Grand Prix in their respective categories at the 57th JAA Advertising Awards: Consumer-Selected Advertising Contest announced in January, are scheduled to speak at the seminar. Yasuhiro Haga, Chair of the JAA Advertising Awards Jury and Professor at Aoyama Gakuin University's School of Business Administration, will serve as moderator.
This is an opportunity to hear how these highly acclaimed advertisements were created, including the creative thinking and behind-the-scenes stories, as well as each company's overall approach to communication.
Furthermore, findings on modern consumer attitudes toward advertising, revealed through questionnaires from 109 general consumer judges, will be reported.
