“Never Done Evolving” for Nike

Awarded:

  • Digital Craft Grand Prix
  • Silver Lion for Innovative Use of Technology
  • Bronze Lion for Data Storytelling
  • Bronze Lion for Use of Influencers

Tim Devine, executive innovation director of AKQA, described to B&T: AKQA and Nike transformed every tennis enthusiast into a data scientist, making the deep analysis of Serena Williams’ legendary career accessible and engaging. It’s more than a revolution; it’s a new form of spectatorship that turns fans into analysts and storytellers.”

“Transparency Card” for Congresso’s em Foco

Awarded:

  • Gold Lion for Curation of Data
  • Gold Lion for Social Purpose
  • Silver Lion for Creative Data, Use of Real Time Data
  • Silver Lion for Direct, Use of Real Time Data
  • Bronze Lion for Product Innovation

According to Devine, “the Transparency Card is a powerful example of radical civics. Giving people real-time notifications of how their tax dollars are being spent by those in power, leads to increased scrutiny of government spending and a more informed citizenry. Every democracy will have a Transparency Card in the future.”
