President Eduardo Marques in the company of top professionals from creative industry also welcomes Golden Drum evolving from advertising festival into a festival of creativity:

I used to say that I hated advertising. Like everybody does. People don’t like to be interrupted. They want to be entertained. To absorb information. To laugh, cry, interact, be surprised or helped. That’s what a brilliant idea does. It becomes a part of someone’s life. Advertising is an old term and too narrow. The festival was smart in its evolution.
