CEDIA Global Awards program boasts increased participation
The CEDIA Home Technology Professional Awards program has seen increased participation from around the world, with 90 home technology professional companies from 18 countries submitting 158 projects for consideration. Over 30 of these companies are first time entrants in the awards program.
“It is encouraging to see so many companies enter projects for the first time – we know that our members do incredible work and it’s exciting to see the stunning and creative solutions from both new and long-time members,” said CEDIA member engagement manager Jenny Scott.
Judging for the Home Technology Professional Awards will begin this month with two panels assessing the technical excellence of each project. Finalists will be announced in the coming weeks.
