LSA celebrates its 90th anniversary and new board members
Leading Swiss Agencies celebrated its 90th anniversary at this year's general meeting. The event provided an opportunity to exchange views, look back and elect three new board members.
The members of Leading Swiss Agencies (LSA) elected Claudia Ziltener (thjnk Zurich), Daniel Jörg (Team Farner) and Pascal Winkler (Publicis Groupe Switzerland) to the Board of Directors at their meeting on Wednesday, June 25 at the Razzia in Zurich.
"I am delighted to be involved in the association that showed me the way into the industry. In particular, I would like to promote partnership-based cooperation between agencies and clients as well as the promotion of young talent in our industry. The latter is particularly close to my heart, as I was able to experience for myself how valuable honest support can be and how enriching it is to work with young talents who will carry our industry into the future," says Claudia Ziltener, member of the management team at thjnk Zurich.
Daniel Jörg, Chief Innovation Officer at Team Farner, adds: "We need to become bolder and more visible as an industry. I want to work on the LSA Board to strengthen our self-image as agencies, make our services more visible and reposition the value of creative communication - for more impact, more pride and more future."
"I am involved in the LSA because I believe that creative excellence comes from the interaction of all disciplines. As a strategist, I see it as my task not only to provide guidance, but also to empower everyone involved to make their contribution to a strong industry with a shared impact," says Pascal Winkler, Chief Strategy Officer of Publicis Groupe Switzerland.
Mark Burow (formerly of Dentsu Creative DACH) and Pablo Koerfer (formerly of Farner Consulting) were duly dismissed from the Board after eight and two years respectively. The LSA would like to thank both of them for their commitment and many years of service to the association and the industry.
