Jason Romeyko (Golden Drum)
Creative leaders who have inspired and motivated us, and who now guide us to move forward in our endeavours. While marking 27 years of the Golden Drum festival, we are humbled and honoured to write the name of Jason Romeyko, Worldwide Executive Creative Director, Serviceplan Group, Germany, next to the great men and women accepted into the Golden Drum Hall of Fame. "To say I am moved by my induction into the Golden Drum Hall of Fame is an understatement. I feel rather overwhelmed that 24 previous recipients of this award - many of them colleagues I look up to, all of whom have shaped the industry in New Europe and beyond, voted for me to share the Hall Of Fame with them. I am grateful to Golden Drum festival for this once-in-a-lifetime distinction. It gives me pause to not only look back on my career with gratitude to those who helped me along my path, but also to look ahead to the future - for I will only be as good as my next idea, and the next generation that follows." - Jason Romeyko, Serviceplan Group Jason has greatly contributed to the establishment, development and success of the New European advertising industry, to its values and spirit. He has not only attended the Golden Drum festival and run for the awards, but also contributed with his novel ideas and brought many creative stars to the table.

In his role as Worldwide Executive Creative Director of Serviceplan Group, Jason is on a mission to impart his philosophy of into the creative mindset of all 17 countries where the Group has Houses of Communication. Jason came up with the concept of ÜberCreativity, meaning "the magic that happens when all parts of the House of Communication come together to create world-first ideas." Jason is pondering the many changes in the industry. Some have been drastic, as the biggest beasts ruthlessly 'optimise efficiency' and traditional setups are struggling to right their course - but for agencies that have always approached things differently, he feels their time has come. He has always recognized the importance of the existence of advertising festivals such as Golden Drum. Jason has been a strong supporter of the festival, enthusiastic and inspiring speaker, fair Golden Drum juror and was honoured with the title Creative Director of the Year at Golden Drum in 2015.

But whoever's name is inscribed on it, briefly brushes against immortality. Then a wall becomes The Wall. Golden Drum Festival has in its twenty-seven years attracted great visionaries and dreamers who fought courageously and passionately for the progress of the creative industry. As time goes by and people move forward, we tend to forget the names of those that have set the foundations, upon which professionals of today build great things. Established in 2010, the Golden Drum Hall of Fame virtual wall reads the names of great women and men. The list grows with careful consideration and a sense of gratefulness to those, whose names and actions we should never forget. Each new member needs to be confirmed and accepted into the Hall of Fame by the existing members.
