InAVation Awards unveils project finalists
Organisers of the InAVation Awards 2010 have revealed details of the much anticipated project awards finalists. More than 100 entries were whittled down to 36 finalists, spanning nine categories. Winners, chosen by a team of industry experts, will be announced after the second day of ISE at a sold-out event in the RAI Diamond Lounge. Read on for details of finalists.

At 18.00 on Wednesday, February 3, 2010 nearly 1,000 AV professionals will gather in the RAI Diamond Lounge at Amsterdam’s RAI exhibition centre in eager anticipation of the unveiling of this year’s InAVation Awards winners.

Chris Fitszimmons, editor of InAVate and a member of the judging panel, congratulated the finalists and said: “The standard of entry was very high this year making it incredibly hard to select the finalists. The judges will have an even tougher job trying to crown just one winner in each category.”

“With the awards event completely sold out we look forward to welcoming a full-house of nearly 1,000 AV professionals on the Wednesday of ISE,” said Dan Jago, publisher of InAVate. “The night promises to be a great networking opportunity and a chance to unwind after a busy day on the show floor.”
