Call For Submissions For IBC Innovation Awards

News Image
IBC 2018 has announced a call for submissions for its Innovation Awards.

The exhibition is taking place in the RAI in Amsterdam from 14 - 18 September.

"The IBC Innovation Awards are the awards that everyone in our industry wants to win," said Michael Crimp, CEO of IBC. "We see projects from around the world, from the biggest players to exciting new providers, all competing to win one of our coveted awards. The quantity and quality of entries continues to grow each year, and this year we are sure that we will see an ever more diverse set of nominations, which means an even tougher task for our judges."

IBC's awards celebrate collaboration to achieve real world goals, and are won by companies who have drawn on the latest technologies to create proven solutions that find new ways to meet today's creative, commercial and technical challenges.

Awards are given out for three different categories: content creation, content distribution and content everywhere. A Judges' Prize is also awarded by the international panel of independent industry figures. The award has previously gone to French Canadian online content creator Groupe Média TFO and NASA.

Michael Lumley, Chair of the judging panel, said: "It does not matter where the nomination comes from, nor the size and scale of the project. Winners can be the biggest multi-national broadcasters, or they can be app developers with a very specific audience. What the judges are looking for is innovation and collaboration in all its forms to solve a real-world challenge, something that makes the content more engaging or more commercially successful."

"Whether you are established in the broadcast sector or focused on emerging technologies that are disrupting the industry, we encourage companies of all sizes and from across the industry to submit an entry for the IBC Innovation Awards – remember innovation is key!"

Every submission will become part of the marketing campaign surrounding the awards, and each entry is to be invited to the awards ceremony on 16 September in the RAI Auditorium, Amsterdam.

The deadline for submissions is Monday 23 April.
