The Inavation Awards will close Business and Technology categories to entries on February 2, 2021.
That’s right, the enormous awards extension facilitated by the shift of the 2021 Inavation Awards to June 2021, is less than two weeks away from ending.
All categories have now been open for an unprecedented five months and despite nearly half a year to enter, as good journalists, we know there’s many of you planning to work right up to the deadline – and we salute you! But now that time is nearly upon us, if you haven’t already, you really must get to work to construct and submit a decent entry in the time left.
To help you on your way here’s a reminder of the Business and Technology categories you’ll be competing for in 2021.
Inavation Awards Business categories
This set of awards entered the Inavation Awards line up last year and is back by popular demand with a difference. Last year only manufacturers of AV technology could enter, this year they’re open to all companies that work within the AV industry.
Entrants compete across a range of categories designed to highlight accomplishments and best practice in business.
Particular highlights for this year include the addition of the AV-as-a-Service Award that will specifically look at business models or initiatives that generate recurring revenue.
We also want to draw your attention to the Corporate Social Responsibility Award. We’re really excited to see the entries into this category in a year that the coronavirus pandemic struck. We’ve heard of numerous examples of companies in AV altruistically working to help those suffering the effects of the pandemic – whether it was support for their own staff, their clients, health services, charities and more. We can’t wait for a chance to formally highlight some of these initiatives and draw attention to that good work.
You can find a full line up of all categories on the Inavation Awards website as well as a link to download entry requirements that will tell you what you need to provide within your entry document. Be creative, be original and inspire our judges. Entry is free.
Inavation Awards Technology Categories
The Technology Awards return to our 2021 line up to find innovative, important AV products. Entrants will compete across eleven categories. Judges will select shortlists before a public vote that will play a part in deciding winners.
There is a £300 administration charge to enter these awards this year but we can tell you exactly where your money is going.
We know that becoming an Inavation Awards Technology finalist or winner is a boost for product marketing. But our objective with the Technology Awards is also to highlight significant products to our Inavation Awards audience and Inavate readership of AV technology buyers. We need to offer more context on our selected products and will be creating more detailed information to support shortlists. This also means we can provide a breakdown of votes for each product. The admin charge will directly go to supporting the creation of these additional materials.
