Five Croatian experts to judge Global Best of the Best Effie Awards

Five Croatian marketing experts have been selected to judge the Global Best of the Best Effie Awards 2026, a competition recognizing the world's most effective marketing projects.

Davor Bruketa of Bruketa& will join the Global Grand Jury, which is scheduled to meet in person in London on September 30 to determine the Global Grand Effie winners. The first round of judging will feature Lea Ileković Žigić (Kaufland Croatia), Krunoslav Stančić, Vanja Vaniček (Addiko Bank AG), and Luka Duboković (BBDO Zagreb).

The competition features projects that previously won gold or Grand Effie awards at national or regional levels. The top performers compete for the Global Grand in their categories, with winners then vying for the Iridium Effie, awarded to the most effective project of the year.
