Day two at #Cannes was nothing short of spectacular! Roberto Ruiz began the day by sitting down with Jamie Steinziano of Ipsos for a fireside chat on TelevisaUnivision’s leadership in the world of sports, followed by a discussion with Nielsen on the evolving sports landscape. Steven Wolfe Pereira ⚡️ moderated a T-Mobile discussion about the evolution of advertising and the progress toward meaningful representation. Veronica Carvallo joined ADWEEK House of Cannes for a group discussion on storytelling and leveraging authenticity for brand success. Daniel Aversano joined TransUnion and Snowflake to unveil cutting-edge innovations in privacy, security, and decentralized tech revolutionizing CTV marketing. In the evening, we celebrated the best way we know how – with Latin music! Rauw Alejandro and Ignacio Meyer sat down with Maren Lau of Meta to discuss the impact and influence of Latin music on global audiences.

On Juneteenth, we take the time to recognize and celebrate when the remaining African American slaves were freed in the U.S. and the challenges they faced to reach freedom. May today’s significance and history be a powerful force for driving positive change, equality, and inclusion in our country for years to come. To commemorate this year’s holiday, our news production team followed an Afro-Mexican family from San Antonio, Texas, that, for many years, has traveled back to their hometown “El Nacimiento de los Negros” in Coahuila, Mexico, to celebrate Juneteenth and to trace a portion of their history and same path their African American ancestors took in the 1800s to find freedom outside of the U.S. Their rooted tradition highlights how shared knowledge about people and culture can lead to a more informed and inclusive community. Join us on Univision and ViX to watch the special segment with Noticias Univision 24/7 News Anchor Carolina Peguero.

We brought La Cultura to La Croisette at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity yesterday to kick off the week ahead! Donna Speciale, President of U.S. Advertising and Marketing, Así Studios VP Veronica Carvallo, and Sarah Squiers, EVP of Client Partnerships, took the stage across various events to discuss the rise of women’s sports and female fútbol fandom, Latin music’s impact, and the power of long-lasting and transformational client/agency relationships. #CannesLions #CannesLions2024
