"The New Beach on the Block"

The Cannes Can: Diversity Collective is honored to welcome you to the FIRST beach activation of its kind created to specifically highlight and showcase the theme of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

Inkwell Beach Cannes is a historical tribute to the infamous beach in Martha’s Vineyard (Cape Cod, USA). It is an activation to celebrate the contributions/perspectives of creative, media, marketing, entertainment, technology and communication fields from communities of colour and underrepresented communities. Inkwell Beach will be the place that highlights “Where Inclusive Creativity Begins is Where Brands Win” via panel discussions focused on building talent channels from non-traditional pathways, creative pitch competitions, talent showcases, C-Suite – Gloves Off sessions and more!

We want everyone to feel WELCOME and INCLUDED in the conversation. 

When you leave Inkwell Beach - Cannes, we hope that you will be inspired to embrace  CC:DC's motto:

"DON'T TALK ABOUT IT. BE ABOUT IT!"
