IBC Awards

IBC today announces the shortlist for the highly coveted IBC2021 Innovation Awards to be awarded to coincide with the IBC Show from 3 to 6 December in Amsterdam.

This year, the awards will celebrate the spirit of collaboration within the content and technology industry, where organisations identified a market challenge and worked together to create a solution.

Dick Hobbs, Chair of the IBC Innovation Awards Jury, commented: “This year’s finalists submitted awe-inspiring projects, many of which had the primary purpose of creating a sense of togetherness despite global circumstances keeping many of us physically apart. The content and technology industry ensured we remained connected by providing coverage of our favourite sports teams with new interactive features and streaming major live events. It also created the world’s first voice-interactive digital portrait and took us to outer space — not for the first time in IBC Awards! What’s even more remarkable is that these ground-breaking projects were delivered in the midst of immensely challenging global circumstances.”

Hobbs added: “This year’s finalists and their projects embody the meaning of collaboration and innovation, making it the highest standard of entries we’ve had to date. I cannot wait to celebrate the recipients and their technology partners at the awards ceremony when we return to Amsterdam in December.”

There are a number of other presentations alongside the IBC2021 Innovation Awards — the best technical paper in the conference is traditionally honoured with an award, and this year there will be a winner from the IBC Accelerator Project, designed to create collaboration for cutting-edge innovation.

IBC’s most prestigious honour is the International Honour for Excellence, which goes to an individual or organisation which has made an outstanding impact. Previous winners of the International Honour for Excellence include Sir David Attenborough, the Science and Technology Labs of Japanese broadcaster NHK, and creator of Sesame Street, Joan Ganz Cooney.
