2025 has been a year of contrasts—intense, emotional, transformative.

In between, there was laughter under a sky full of fireflies outside Kuala Lumpur with my grandson Mauricio; a spiritual retreat in […]
Technology is the most powerful accelerator in advertising creativity. Brands around the world are proliferating and next June Cannes will have more cases that prove this to be true. The speed of change is only increasing and today it is reckless. Let’s [...]
The future begins today, as a phrase could rightly be described as trite. However, it reflects a powerful truth that I do not recommend ignoring (it can be very expensive!). That’s right, the future will be nothing more or less than the [...]

A lot of money is always twice what you have. After one Lion we want two. A 4:19 marathon should be after 4:15. Agency of the Year twice asks for the third time after that. A good design demands a better one [...]
Last night at the Effie of Guatemala sounded a great winner“El Taier / Tribu DDB” with Golds and nothing less than the Grand Effie. This was communicated to us by Manuel Madrid, on behalf of the entire taier / Tribu DDB, Jorge [...]
After several months of waiting, the Lion won by Tribu DDB at the last Cannes Festival has arrived. It’s beautiful! It is elegant, fine and distinguished. The unpacking was emotional, happy and among friends. Here are some pictures.
Hoy colocamos unas cuantas Macs viejas a la entrada de nuestro edificio, como bien lo redactaron Liz San Elías y Carlos Soto, en un Tribu to Jobs. Las reacciones no nos las imaginamos, y nos han venido a recordar todo lo que [...]
