Kyoorius has introduced a new initiative for the 2026 Kyoorius Creative Awards and Kyoorius Marketing Awards, aimed at taking Indian creative work to a wider global audience. The move connects its top honours directly with international recognition.

Under this initiative, every unique project that wins a Blue Elephant will receive one fully sponsored entry to the 2027 Clio Awards. The idea is to ensure that winning work doesn’t just stay within the Indian awards circuit but also gets an opportunity to be recognised on a global platform.

“Kyoorius has always been about recognising and benchmarking the very best of Indian creativity. With this step, we’re extending that journey beyond our stage,” said Rajesh Kejriwal, Founder and CEO, Kyoorius. “By sponsoring a Clio Awards entry for every unique Blue Elephant-winning project, we ensure the work doesn’t stop at regional recognition. It goes on to be seen, judged, and celebrated globally.”

The sponsorship will be applicable across all unique Blue Elephant-winning projects from both the Kyoorius Creative Awards and the Kyoorius Marketing Awards. Each selected project will receive one complimentary entry to the 2027 Clio Awards, fully funded by Kyoorius.

This step also addresses a common challenge in the industry, where global exposure often depends on access and resources. By covering the entry cost, Kyoorius is making it easier for Indian work to compete internationally, shifting the focus purely onto the quality of ideas and execution.

Entries for the 2026 Kyoorius Creative Awards and Kyoorius Marketing Awards are currently open, with the deadline set for 24 April 2026.

Kyoorius continues to play a key role in promoting creativity and design in India through its awards, conferences, and industry initiatives. With this latest move, the platform is further strengthening its effort to connect Indian talent with global recognition opportunities.

The Clio Awards, established in 1959, are among the most recognised global platforms celebrating excellence in advertising, marketing, and communications. Each year, the awards bring together leading creative professionals to evaluate and honour outstanding work across categories.
