Amsterdam, Netherlands — In a significant gathering on October 22, the Dutch jury of The Immortal Awards convened to select the nation’s finalists who will advance to the European round of this prestigious advertising competition. This decision marks a pivotal step for Dutch entries, showcasing the strongest contenders in commercial creativity over the past year.

During the rigorous selection process, the jurors identified four standout projects that exemplified the innovative spirit of Dutch advertising. These projects, chosen from a diverse shortlist, are set to represent the Netherlands on a larger stage, competing against top works from across Europe.

The finalists from the Netherlands include “Pink Chip” by DEGIRO, submitted by AKQA Amsterdam, “A Piece of Me” by KPN, conceived by Dentsu Creative Amsterdam & Amp.Amsterdam // The Sonic Branding Company, “Watch Where We’re Going” by Nike, presented by 100%, and “Culers del Mon” a collaborative effort by Patta, FC Barcelona, and Nike, also submitted by 100%.

These selected works will go head-to-head with other European finalists, including five from Ireland, four from the Nordics, seven from France, ten from the UK, six from Spain, and three from Germany. The competition aims to honor the most immortal ideas in advertising, those that exceed the ordinary in both conception and impact.

The panel included Gijs Determeijer, head of commercials at 100%; Niels de Wit, executive creative director at Monks Netherlands & Benelux; Nick Docherty, chief strategy officer at Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam; and several other prominent figures from top agencies.

Besides the finalists, many other noteworthy projects were part of The Immortal Awards 2024 Netherlands shortlist, but did not advance to the next round.
