When strategy speaks the language of creativity

Endless scrolling today offers a kind of “synthetic reality,” but at the end of the day, one thing remains independent of any software or tool: a great story. It’s character. It’s insight. It’s a force that simply can’t be artificially generated.

At CIM Forum 2026, we welcome someone who knows how to turn those stories into global success — Jernej Špende.

With two Cannes Lions in his portfolio and experience leading marketing for the global Bragg Gaming Group, Jernej brings knowledge recognized by some of the industry’s most prestigious awards, including Effie and European Excellence Awards.

We are especially proud that Jernej will also serve as a member of the CIM Awards jury this year. His credibility raises the bar of our competition — because we celebrate only the ideas that truly make an impact on the market and culture.

Join us to learn from the best, where tradition meets the future of media. See you in the squares that inspire!
