Co-founder and CCO of creative agency, Lanfranco Cordova, Gian Carlo and his partner Rolando Cordova were the first ever Future Lions winners.

Originally from Lima, Peru, Gian Carlo and his partner have spent the decade and a half since their Future Lions win leading creative departments across the world for global agencies like McCann New York, Havas New York, Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam, Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore. His journey inspired Rei Inamoto’s (Founding Partner of I&CO and previously Chief Creative Officer, AKQA) “Great Stories” film for Cannes Lions 2012, where Rei highlights Gian Carlo’s work as some of the best he’d seen in six years of the competition. Today, Lanfranco Cordova creates effective and award-winning ideas with outstanding production value for global brands like Mini, Chevrolet and American Express.
