Where independents gather to grow their business.
The Challenger pass is built for ambitious indies – independently owned agencies, challenger brands and businesses and freelancers – who want to bring their company to the global stage.
You’ll be connecting with like-minded indie leaders from across the globe and setting up potential client meetings in between talks in the Palais (main Festival venue), followed by exploring the winning work or even taking to the stage to lift your own Lion.
New for this year, LIONS Creators and LIONS Sport are now part of your Challenger pass – giving you the chance to expand your network in these specific sectors.
This pass is right for you if:
- you own or work for an independently owned agency, brand or other business with 100 employees or fewer
- your company makes an annual revenue of €100m or less
- you want to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and founders.
