... which we, the Golden Hammer organisers began by receiving some really unpleasant news: the Golden Hammer Grand Prix awards had been stolen – more precisely, a car belonging to the company that made the awards was stolen, complete with the prizes which were in the boot, ready to be driven to the awards ceremony!

This situation demanded an immediate and creative solution, devised and offered to us by Thomas Le Thierry, Vizeum Global President and head of the communications jury.

And the result is a segment of the Golden Hammer banner with the attestation that the Grand Prix that has been won is real and genuine, as evidenced by the signature of the head of the jury and Golden Hammer CEO Baiba Liepiņa. Only seven winners are in possession of this one-off Grand Prix, but we rather hope that we will not have to award similar prizes next year ...
