This year’s highly coveted Grand LIA was awarded to Havas London for their beautifully crafted campaign, “Me, My Autism & I", designed for Vanish x Ambitious About Autism.
Portz provided her perspective on the winners, expressing, "Overall, we had really good work. For the Grand LIA, everyone in the jury voted for this film because it was emotionally so strong but at the same time it was crafted so well that you could just feel how important it is to talk about a disease about social pressure, family pressure. So, we voted for "Me, My Autism and I."
