The owner and Executive Producer of ROMA will participate in the evaluation and recognition of young talent from within the festival.
The Young Director Award (YDA) is the only global award dedicated exclusively to young emerging directors in advertising production. As a pioneering and non-profit organization, it promotes international creative talent using cutting-edge technology. It is also one of the highlighted events of the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.
This year, Oscar Romagosa, owner and executive producer of ROMA, is a member of the YDA 2025 jury. “I think the YDA is one of the most exciting sections of Lions Cannes. I’m excited to be on the other side this time, observing all this new talent from inside the beast.”
Oscar Romagosa has dedicated more than 20 years to the audiovisual sector. After starting in independent cinema with NANOUK Films, he was a key piece in the global success of CANADA. He currently directs HEAVEN Inc., specialized in advertising and audiovisual projects, and ROMA in Europe, producing alongside highly recognized directors like J.A. Bayona.
