The AV Awards 2021 winners have been announced
)
The AV Awards are back in the biggest in-person industry celebration of the new hybrid era. And the winners have now been announced.
As with any year, the awards reward outstanding examples of excellence from across all pro AV markets and all technologies but this year’s celebration of outstanding achievement is special, coming as it does after one of the most challenging periods for the industry in recent times, and as AV Magazine itself approaches its 50th anniversary at the beginning of 2022.
All our awards are independently judged by a panel of senior representatives from end-user organisations, consultants and key industry players. Here are their choices.
