"Communications and brand innovation conference Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity distributes highly coveted awards in press, design, cyber, film and mobile, among other categories. And Twitter creator Jack Dorsey received one of them: Media Person of the Year. \nBut the awards mentioned most often in social fell under the festival's Young Lions Competition, which celebrates the work of professionals under 30. They compete for top awards in the following categories: cyber, film, media, print, design and young marketers. Winners from countries like the Czech Republic, Singapore, Columbia and Poland took home top gold medal awards.\n\nSEE ALSO: Twitter Dominates Day 2 of Cannes Lions [INFOGRAPHIC]\nCreators of this infographic, SapientNitro, also include some fun facts about this year's Cannes Lions: the audience has viewed over 65 hours of film, and that's only within the Film Lions category. Furthermore, if the conference's presentation boards were laid out side by side, they'd stretch to eight miles-long, about the same distance that a plane flies above the ground. \n\nThumbnail image courtesy of Wikimedia Commons, David Shankbone"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
