2019 Cannes contenders: 'The Quiet Taxi' by Innocean/Hyundai
We asked creative leaders from across the region choose the work they expect (or hope) to see winning at Cannes Lions this year. See all this year's Cannes contenders.

Contender: The Quiet Taxi
Agency: Innocean Worldwide/ Hyundai Motor Group/Walking in Mind
Client: Hyundai Motor Group  

Nominated by:

Merlee Jayme, chairmom/chief creative officer, Dentsu Jayme Syfu:

I am always in the lookout for ideas that change lives and change the world. This innovation changed people’s habits, perception and judgement towards the hearing-impaired driver, as it gave confidence and an equal chance for a normal job to the latter. This “audio-tactile conversion” technology from Hyundai, is definitely something the world can adapt-not just in driving but even in hundreds of other jobs.
