The Golden Giraffe Event Awards \u2013 also known as the Oscars of the Dutch events industry \u2013 annually recognizes the most distinctive and impactful events. The Golden Giraffe jury consists of marketing and event professionals who assess all submissions and live pitch presentations, after which a substantiated ranking is created per category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bring Your Own = The Way To Go<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Groundbreakers and NS participated together in the 'Bring Your Own' activation in the categories PR & Media Value and Sustainability. The entry concerned a mediagenic activation that created awareness for the NS campaign and activated travelers to replace their disposable cup with their own reusable cup. During the four activation days, hundreds of travelers threw away their last ever disposable cup and no fewer than 15.2 million people were reached. What is special about the concept is that the activation - fully in line with the objective - is also sustainably produced<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“What is striking is that everyone has sustainability high on their agenda. It is certainly reflected in the concepts that have passed, but there are a number that excel in this.\u201d \u2013 Jury member Paul Gruijthuijsen<\/em><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
