The Loeries (The Loerie Awards Company NPC) is a non-profit company dedicated to the recognition of creative excellence in the brand communications industry, in Africa and the Middle East. The Loeries is recognised as South Africa and the region's most prestigious creative festival,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Motive: Will work that’s won internationally do well at Loeries? )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Loeries: why SA’s top ad awards are still relevant in a digital world )〕 and is also the most covered festival in the South African media.〔http://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/196/423/122689.html〕 ==History== The Loerie Awards first took place in 1978 in Johannesburg. Television was introduced to South Africa relatively late in 1976,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Start of daily television transmissions - South African History Online )〕 and the delay was due to the political belief at the time that television was "undesirable". Once television had finally been introduced, the first television commercials commenced in 1978, and consequently, the Loerie Awards were introduced in the same year to promote the new medium of television advertising. Since 1978, new categories were regularly added and today the awards include not only traditional advertising, but recognise virtually every touch-point between a brand and the consumer - including architecture, design, digital media, live events, sponsorship, as well as integrated campaigns.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Loeries )〕 In 2004, the Loeries were almost "consigned to the scrap heap." Until then, the awards were managed by the Marketing Federation of South Africa, but they were rescued by the Association for Communication and Advertising (ACA) South Africa and the Creative Circle South Africa〔http://www.fmcg.co.za/default.aspx?tabid=226〕 who formed a new non-profit company to run the awards. After the inaugural awards in Johannesburg in 1978, the awards were held for many years at Sun City until 2004. In 2005 the Loeries moved to Margate, KwaZulu-Natal,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Loeries officially confirmed for Margate )〕 then to Cape Town in 2009, and in 2015 the awards will be hosted for the first time in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Loerie Awards to move from Cape Town to Durban in 2015 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Loeries )〕 The year-long events showcase all that the brand communication industry has to offer both and promote the way in which creativity adds value. Dr Andrew Human has been the Chief Executive Officer since 2005〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Andrew Human Unpacks Loeries Creative Week )〕 and Neo Mashigo is the current Chairman. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Loeries」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
