The finalists for the first-ever Digiday Video Awards Europe have been announced, and Iris is the entrant to beat.

Iris is up for five nominations. It’s up for Best Brand Video – Single for “Jeep Portraits” for Jeep and “Never Follow” for Adidas. Iris also has work up in Best Multi-Platform Video Campaign for “Rethink Role Models” for Samsung, and Best Advertiser in Video also for “Never Follow” and Best Social Video Campaign for “Boss Everyone” for Adidas.
