Leadership & Click Awards

TVOT Awards Trophy

[itvt] will present our prestigious annual Awards for Leadership in Interactive and Multiplatform Television at a ceremony at the TV of Tomorrow Show 2010.

The awards, which debuted at the NCTA National Show in 2004, recognize both corporate and individual achievement in the multiplatform interactive TV space. This year we are expanding the scope of the awards to additionally recognize leadership in three emerging areas: annotations/hotspotting, video commerce and augmented reality.

We are accepting nominations for the awards: the winners will be determined by [itvt] readers and a panel of industry experts through a rigorous voting process.

This year we are also introducing the Click Awards, a new sub-category of the Awards for Leadership in Interactive and Multiplatform Television. Initially, they will recognize creative excellence in three emerging areas of broadband/Internet video:

interactive video programming (i.e. programming that includes annotations, hotspotting, and other forms of clickable video)
interactive video advertising/marketing
interactive video commerce ("vcommerce")

"I can’t say enough good things about you and this year’s TVOT conference. The venue was beyond compare – artistic and functional and funky and the gardens and OMIGOD I *love* Yerba Buena. For real the best venue I’ve ever experienced. I do realize I’m gushing like a GIRL, but I just loved it. The size of the conference was ideal: Not too big. Not too small. Just right. The sessions were perfectly relevant and hit along the major chords of the sector in a way that belies your passion and expertise. And I will just never, ever get over (in a good way) you getting misty over Philo Farnsworth’s birthday, your discussions with his wife Pam, and then exclaiming “I’m verklempt.” WHO SAYS I’M VERKLEMPT? I LOVE IT. J The depth of your passion is genuine and extremely refreshing. I just really loved everything about TVOT. Thank you for including me. Two BIG thumbs up. If I had a third thumb, it’d be up too. Thanks for the putting it together, and thanks for including me. "
