Awards Ceremony: You’re Invited

You’re invited to attend the AVIAs awards ceremony staged at Integrate. Thanks to the support of InfoComm International, the ceremony will follow InfoComm’s Industry Reception at the conclusion of Day 1 of the show. That’s right: free drinks and nibbles followed by a celebration of the best the industry has to offer. And all wrapped up in time for you to make it to your dinner engagement. No RSVP required, simply head along to the Integrate Bar (on site) at the end of Day 1. 

Judging Panel Chairman’s Note: Although a record number of entries were received this year, there was a very notable bias towards projects in the Government and Commercial category and most particularly in the Education category. Entries were very sparse in the Production (two entries) and Exhibition and Display (a single entry) categories, meaning that the judging panel may have difficulties making these awards this year.
