Sorrell\u2019s comments in this interview with Beet.TV came as the organizers of Cannes announced the formation of an advisory committee to help them decide what the event should consist of going forward amid controversy generated by the pullout next year of Publicis Groupe, as The Drum reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u201cCannes as ever was a frenetic week,\u201d says Sorrell. \u201cProbably has become too big. Probably has become too expensive.\u201d<\/p>\n
Some people are questioning \u201cwhether Cannes should be Cannes, or Cannes should be in Cannes, or whether Cannes should be canned as somebody put it to me,\u201d he adds. \u201cI think it\u2019s a good question.\u201d<\/p>\n
The value of Cannes to WPP \u201cis that it\u2019s important to our people and it\u2019s important to our clients.\u201d WPP staffers see the awards confab \u201cas a way of enriching their careers and celebrating their success with their peers judging their work.\u201d The holding company\u2019s clients \u201calso enjoy it in the sense that they get a great kick out of winning awards and being judged by their peers has having been responsible for producing great work.\u201d<\/p>\n
Seen in this light, Sorrell doesn\u2019t think a boycott or withdrawal is helpful \u201cbut where it\u2019s directionally correct is it does raise the question about whether this is the right place to do this and whether this is the right format.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause I think in certain respects, certainly in terms of expense, and maybe some excesses, it\u2019s too much.\u201d<\/p>\n
