CEDIA is announcing multiple changes to key events and timelines as a result of the continued disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic. These changes will affect CEDIA Awards celebration events, CEDIA Awards entry deadlines and the CEDIA Leadership Conference.

The deadline for all three CEDIA Awards is now 1 June 2020 and includes entries for integrators and manufacturers/trade suppliers.

The CEDIA Awards Celebration Events for the Americas region has also been moved to take place alongside the CEDIA Expo in Denver this coming September. A location and time for the EMEA and Asia Pacific awards is still being investigated.

“While we were incredibly excited about the programming we were building for the CEDIA Awards and Leadership Conference, it seems unlikely that travel to an event of this nature would be possible for a majority of our members at this time or in the near future,” CEDIA senior vice president of industry engagement Giles Sutton says.

“For members who are looking for ways to connect and learn during this challenging time, I would encourage you to check out the wide variety of webinars, financial sessions and roundtable discussions that CEDIA is hosting.”

There will be additional details about the respective regional awards celebrations as they are available.
