Jury President
Rich Levy
Chief Creative Officer
Klick Health, New York

Rich Levy enjoys doing things differently and believes the work being done in healthcare right now is among the world's best and most important.

A respected voice in global creative leadership, Rich has served on some of the world’s most distinguished juries, as both juror and President, including the Creative Floor Awards (2024), LIA's Health & Wellness Jury President (2023) and Pharma & Medical Jury President (2018), Effies Health Grand Jury (2022), and the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity Pharma Lions Jury President (2018)

Rich’s career achievements have been further recognized with a recent induction into the 2025 Hall of Legends by the Creative Floor Awards, an MM+M Pinnacle Award (2021) honoree, and DTC Hall of Fame (2019) inductee, underscoring his enduring impact on health and wellness creativity worldwide. He was also named to both MM&M’s and PR Week’s “Health Influencer 50" list. 

As Chief Creative Officer, Rich has helped Klick Health earn top accolades, including London International Awards Global (and Regional) Independent Health & Pharma Agency of the Year, Clio Health Independent Agency of the Year, as well as Cannes Lions #2 Healthcare Agency and #2 Healthcare Network. Klick recently made history by becoming the first health agency to ever be ranked an ‘Agency of the Year’ by both The One Show and New York Festivals Advertising Awards

Teaching the next generation of creative talent has always been important to Rich. He has held advertising faculty positions at the School of Visual Arts, the Fashion Institute of Technology, and Syracuse University. One of the things that Rich is most proud of is mentoring people to reach their full potential. Currently, over a dozen creative leaders who have worked with Rich are among the leading agency Chief Creative Officers and Executive Creative Directors in the industry. 

Before making his move to healthcare, Rich had a lengthy career in consumer advertising and his work has been honored many times over by the LIAs, Effies, Cannes Lions, The One Show, Art Directors Club, Andys, and Clios. The “Can You Hear Me Now” campaign slogan he wrote for Verizon Wireless is in the Advertising Walk of Fame and his work for Canon is a part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art.
