Geneva, Switzerland – October 29 – Esteemed communications professionals gathered today to serve as judges for the sixth edition of the Luum Awards: the international festival celebrating purpose-driven creativity. Festival winners showcased communication initiatives focused on generating a positive impact on society and the planet.
The cases submitted to the 2026 edition of the Luum Awards reaffirmed the festival’s role as an international benchmark for purpose-driven communications. Luum 2026 winners came from countries such as Germany, Hong Kong, Morocco, Thailand, Sweden, Uganda, Spain, Puerto Rico, France, the United States, and Canada, among others.
This edition delivered a diverse top 10, featuring agencies such as The Good Company (France), Mercado McCann (Argentina), WIWO (Chile), Stendahls (Sweden), Inbrax (Chile), Publicis Impact (Tunisia), TNC (Morocco), The Prime (Mexico), Dieste | Omnicom (United States), and Fuse Create (Canada).
The ranking also includes agencies such as Droga5 & Bumblebeat (Brazil), Ogilvy (Dominican Republic), VML (Canada), Cheil (Peru), The Security Bureau of the HKSAR Government (Hong Kong), GROW (Spain), Tribeca Media (Peru), Publicidad Comercial MullenLowe (Guatemala), and Hakuhodo International (Indonesia), among others.
In total, 113 trophies were awarded: 4 Grand Prix, 49 Gold, and 60 Silver recognitions, reaching 26 countries. Although Luum Awards operates a free-entry model in which only winners pay the corresponding award rights, the festival remains firmly committed to the exclusivity, rigor, and prestige of its recognitions. Its objective is not to maximize the number of trophies awarded, but to preserve the value and significance of every distinction. To uphold this commitment, each edition brings together a selective and demanding international jury composed of professionals with distinguished track records in creativity, communications, and positive impact.
Luum: A Purpose-Driven Creative Festival with Clear Rules
Luum has an egalitarian format, where all agencies, regardless of size, can upload their entries without paying any registration fees. The festival begins with an initial evaluation filter, which took was conducted online between October 7 and 10, with the participation of international judges who analyzed the participating campaigns based on the festival’s established criteria.
Subsequently, on October 29, at the Hilton Convention Centre in Geneva, Switzerland, a select group of judges evaluated the submissions with the highest scores to select the top awards for this edition: Grand Prix and Titanium.
Finally, as part of its commitment to purpose-driven creativity, the Luum Awards allocates resources that would traditionally be invested in an award ceremony to social and environmental initiatives, not only during the dates of the Luum Volunteer Experience, but throughout the year as well.
