Klick Health Starts Roaring in Cannes
CANNES, France & TORONTO , June 18 /Businesswire/ - Yesterday, Klick Health showed its Cannes-do spirit, winning a Gold Pharma Lion, and Bronze Health & Wellness Lion at the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity, and earning the world’s overall number-two Healthcare Agency and number-two Healthcare Network of the Year for the second year in a row.

Perhaps even more telling of the agency’s rise on the global awards stage are the 13 additional shortlists it has received in mainstream categories like Film, Entertainment, Film Craft, Digital Craft, and Innovation.
“With almost five times the number of non-health shortlists, our work is having tremendous impact in the most prestigious, toughest categories at Cannes,” said Klick Health Chief Creative Officer Rich Levy. “To us, this signals the continued mainstreaming of health in society and the growing acceptance that health work can be just as creative and impactful as work in other sectors.”
Agency Co-Founder and Chairman Leerom Segal agreed, saying, “The work that our team produced is awe-inspiring and leading the way beyond the parameters of health. We are incredibly grateful to all the Klicksters who contributed to these innovative, exquisitely crafted campaigns for our clients to help make the world a better, healthier place.”
