  The National Advertising Challenge is North America's only brief based original creative advertising competition, where hundreds of Advertising Agencies from across the country compete for the best creative or media campaign for a Brand. Entries in the form of advertising campaigns or media plans are judged by a jury of the smartest Agency Creative and Media Directors to determine two winners for each brand. At the end of the competition, all entries are owned by the brand to implement as they choose. Brand managers have called this $100,000 of innovative thinking for a fraction of its value; there is no better way to generate fresh ideas. At the Gala held in Toronto, the winners will be announced. Six weeks later, they will be flown to Cannes for the Festival of Creativity as their award.
