Josy Paul, Chairperson and Chief Creative Officer, has been appointed as Jury Chair for the Public Relations category at the upcoming 2026 Clio Awards – one of the world’s most prestigious honours celebrating creativity in advertising and communications.
The appointment recognizes Paul’s long-standing contribution to the industry and his pioneering approach to purpose-driven creativity. The Clio Awards’ 2026 program will assemble over 100 creative leaders from around the world. Jury sessions will be held at JA Resort & Spa in Dubai, where members will determine the Grand, Gold, Silver, and Bronze Clio winners across categories.
Speaking about his role, Josy Paul said: “Public relations has evolved into a powerful force that shapes culture and behaviour. It’s about sparking meaningful conversations and driving genuine action. As Jury Chair, I look forward to celebrating work that not only captures attention but earns belief – work that moves people, and markets.”
This marks another milestone for BBDO India, whose work has consistently been recognized on the global stage for blending creativity with social impact. Under Paul’s leadership, the agency has produced some of India’s most loved, globally recognized and culturally resonant campaigns.
The 67th Annual Clio Awards will take place on May 12, 2026, at Cipriani 25 Broadway in New York City.
