PLASA Awards for Innovation Open for Entries

The PLASA Awards for Innovation are now open for entries. Product manufacturers and developers are invited to enter the annual awards by Friday, August 17. Successfully nominated products will be featured on the Innovation Gallery throughout the PLASA Show, September 16 - 18, at London Olympia, with winners announced at a special ceremony on September 17.

Entries will be judged by an independent panel of industry experts, with up to eight awards, including the possibility of a Gold Award, set to be given to products and solutions that demonstrate a new style of thinking; improve technical practice and safety; introduce new technology, materials, or techniques; or offer new commercial advantages. The PLASA Award for Sustainability may be presented to a solution that achieves significant power reduction, has a positive impact on the environment, or makes an effective use of renewable energy.

The PLASA Awards are crowned by the prestigious Gottelier Award which celebrates the lifetime achievement of a pioneering professional working within live entertainment technology. PLASA members and pre-registered PLASA Show visitors are eligible to vote for this accolade which, in 2017, was presented to Wayne Howell, the founder of Artistic Licence.
