Cook said belief in creativity from the very top, including the board and CEO Michel Doukeris, has been critical to AB InBev’s success, including all-time high full-year volumes in 2022. 

“They’ve also scaled, using the best practice established in the U.S. as a blueprint for their approach across other markets,” Cook said. “All of this has delivered incredible business results, and the fact that they now use the number and breadth of Lion wins as a core measure of success shows just how powerful creativity is in driving progress.”
