Goafest is back after a gap of two years. The event that celebrates the best advertising and media work from India is celebrating its 15th anniversary.
The official statement from the organizing committee read, “15 years of Goafest is truly a special milestone anniversary. What makes it more special is that after a gap of two years, Goafest returns like never before! The annual celebration that has been a part of our lives for a decade and a half, was on pause like so many other things in life, due to the pandemic. Our endurance was tested, perseverance was questioned, leaving the entire industry challenged. For advertising and media businesses, our people are our most important asset and each one of us braved hard times.”
It further read, “The pandemic brought forth the Superpower Within each one of us. When we thought we were down and out, we were compelled to dig deeper and find courage and resilience. Not just people, businesses discovered their own unbeatable spirit to survive and thrive, so did governments and countries. Now, it is time to acknowledge this power within each one of us that makes us unique, that enables us to face challenges with ease and helps us make the world a better place. It is time to celebrate The Superpower Within.”
