IABM announced Shortlist for Broadcast and Media Awards
posted:
The panel of 40+ non-affiliated, expert judges are now scrutinizing the shortlisted entries. Visits to the booths of companies shortlisted will take place once NAB opens to ensure they have complied with the rules of entry. The eventual winners will be announced at the IABM BaM™ Awards ceremony and party on Tuesday 10th April. Venue is Ballroom C at the Westgate Resort, adjacent to the Las Vegas Convention Center, 6pm onwards. A few tickets are still available; register here.
“The quality and breadth of innovation embodied in the entries this year was quite simply outstanding,” said John Ive, IABM Director Strategic Insight, chair of the judging panel. “Innovation is still clearly very much at the heart of what drives this industry forward, and the judges face a real challenge in selecting the final winners. Many of the disruptive changes facing our industry are represented by the wide ranging applications. Just making the shortlist is a considerable achievement in the face of consistently high-level competition.”
