Top names in the industry such as Mr Sajan Raj Kurup, Chairman and Chief Creative officer of Creativeland Asia, Mr Josy Paul, Chairman of BBDO India, and Mr Prathap Suthan, National Creative Director of Cheil Worldwide, South West Asia, are the members of the jury, Mr P K Natesh, President of the Advertising Club of Cochin, said.

Addressing a press conference in Kochi, Mr Natesh said: “The three persons have proven credentials in heading juries of similar nature at national and global levels. We are also expecting higher number of participants compared with the first edition, Pepper 07.”
