Independent creative consultant Ted Lim was Dentsu Regional Chief Creative Officer for Asia-Pacific. He worked with 30 offices from China to Australia and believes marketing in the experience economy has to move people to move business. “Data tells us where the customer is. Media gets us there. What we do when we are face-to-face with the customer, that’s creative.”He repositioned the work Dentsu Asia-Pacific produces as “Innovative Business Solutions”. Work in the experiential, digital and social space that gets people to stop, stare and share. Work that is different and makes a real difference from engagement to transaction.His integrated campaign for Toyota got millions of views and TIME magazine’s attention, “This Toyota ad is utterly insane – and wonderful”. The work his team produced helped Dentsu win a slew of business – Coca-Cola, Sprite, Zespri, Prudential, Unilever, Adidas, Qantas, Uniqlo and Yamaha – and global recognition. Dentsu won the D&AD Black Pencil, the Cannes Lions Grand Prix, The One Show Best of Discipline and the Facebook Award for Innovation.

Ted served as Jury President at Cannes Lions, Spikes Asia, AdFest and Ad Stars, judged D&AD, One Show, Clio, New York Festivals and London International Awards, spoke at the World Knowledge Forum in Seoul and shared his thoughts on “When Data Meets Creativity” in Cannes. AdWeek picked Ted as one of the 13 global creative leaders whose ideas are advancing advertising worldwide in 2019.Former DDB Worldwide Chairman and Chief Creative Officer, Bob Scarpelli feels, “Not only is Ted an outstanding creative person and inspiring leader, he is just an outstanding person.

The work he has done and inspired at DDB was always among the best in Asia-Pacific and in our network. The people who have worked with him have learned, grown and soared under his nurturing style of leadership.”
