The winners of the Cannes Young Lions competition have been revealed with the teams from Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan walking away with their first-ever trophies.
The Uzbek delegation walked away with a bronze trophy in Design whilst the Kazakh team snared a silver in Digital.
Australia, however, left trophyless. The Lucky Country’s performance over the whole of the Cannes awards has been poor.
Here are the winners and their work.
