A jury of 70 creatives from 19 APAC countries — as well as a handful of international creative leaders — judged this year’s entries.

After years of running The One Show Greater China, the club expanded the scope of the awards last year to include all of Asia Pacific as One Asia. Entries in 2021 were received from 17 countries in APAC, with winners representing 14.

The eventual 2022 winners will be unveiled in late January 2023.
