James Blake Unpacks the Art of Vulnerable Creativity at Cannes Lions 2025
All& co-founder Suzanne Powers commanded Cannes Lions' attention, leading a rare introspective session with Grammy-winner James Blake that challenged the industry's obsession with speed over substance. Blake's stark warning—"AI was supposed to give us more time, but it's just giving us less"—crystallized what every CEO faces: choosing between scalable output and genuine connection. Powers' ability to facilitate this conversation demonstrates why All& matters: they understand that sustainable business growth requires both operational efficiency and emotional resonance, not sacrificing one for the other.
Former IPG execs launch All&, a match made in marketing
When two powerhouse executives from Interpublic Group decided to join forces, they created something remarkable—an agency that promises to handle whatever brands need, whenever they need it.
All&, the aptly named new agency, is the brainchild of Jennifer Breithaupt (formerly IPG's EVP and Chief Experience Officer) and Suzanne Powers (previously McCann Worldgroup's Global Chief Product Officer). Their mission? To bring the expertise of holding companies into a more "open system" that can adapt to any brand's unique challenges.
