Competition founder Daniel Bluzer-Fry said: “It’s been a raging success for the first run at it.

“The engagement we’ve got from top tier partners, some of the best artists in the world along with the public has created a very strong foundation and platform for what comes next”.

He added: “The synergies for those involved have created a lot of value. Amongst other things, artists have had exposure to new audiences along with our partners, the public have won prizes and enjoyed some fun times, and a handful of brands in the NFP sector have been engaged and given exposure for their good work.

“All I can say, is that next week, we’re going to be crunching a few numbers and have some more surprises in store.

“Everybody who has been a part of the journey will be rewarded, so I’d jump aboard and get a Shaker Pass before we wrap up”.

Last week, Bluzer-Fry – who has a background in insights and strategic planning – tilted his hat to W+K’s Head of Planning in Amsterdam when he referenced a quote from a passage titled “Make Dissent Safe” in one of the authors 2017 articles.

“It takes a lot of courage to be an early adopter and make a leap of faith jump on anything that hasn’t established proof of concept – and that certainly doesn’t go unnoticed on this end”.
