Editor’s Note: This story about the Commercial Integrator Integration Awards was originally published on Sept. 9, 2024 and has since been updated as of Sept. 27, 2024.
The Commercial Integrator Integration Awards are an annual highlight for our team because they not only allow us to celebrate some of the most awe-inspiring, immersive and experiential AV projects that integrators have created over the past year but also enable us to vicariously visit some of these spaces, which might be thousands of miles away.
Each year, our editors solicit, write and publish thought leadership and expert guidance for the integration community, befitting our mission to be the recognized business handbook for technology professionals. This month, it’s all about celebrating how integrators have leveraged outside counsel and internal talent to create unforgettable experiences.
Commercial Integrator Integration Awards Cast a Wide Net
Just as most integration firms work in a constellation of vertical markets, the Integration Awards cast a wide net. We spotlight everything from more practical, results-oriented spaces like small offices and meeting rooms, to experience-focused attractions like casinos and eSports venues, to environments (like higher education and corporate campuses) that are transforming to align with the trend toward hybridization and collaboration. Different skill sets are needed to serve each vertical well, and it’s a testament to some integrators’ versatility that they’ve earned multiple Integration Awards this year.
Winners are determined by an unbiased panel of judges, each of whom uses independent judgment — free of undue influence — to determine which projects deserve recognition. As always, the judges have no affiliation with or connection to the submitting integrators or any of the clients served.
Winners were announced at the 2024 CEDIA Expo / Commercial Integrator Expo Smart Stage in Denver.
