2016 DSE Annual Apex Awards open for nominations

There are nine categories open for nominations for a new or current digital signage or interactive technology programme installed between 1 November 2014 and 31 October 2015. Updated content for existing digital signage installations that began running during the same period will also qualify. The deadline to submit entries is 6 November 2015.

As digital signage installations and the content they display go hand-in-hand, and the lines between the two are becoming less and less distinct, the Installation and Content Awards will now be presented in a single category.

"The DSE Apex Awards have been nurturing creativity and innovation in our industry for over a decade and as the sector has evolved we have taken a cue from real life to combine our awards for great installations and amazing content," Chris Brennaman, DSE's Conference Manager, said.

There are Gold, Silver and Bronze awards in the nine categories and two overall winners will receive the Apex Installation of the Year and Apex Content of the Year awards. Categories include Arts, Entertainment & Recreation; Business & Government Services; Education & Healthcare; Event Venues & Hospitality; Food & Beverage; Immersive Environments; Public Spaces; Retail; and Transportation. The 2016 awards program will be held on 16 March 2016 from 5-7 pm during DSE's free networking reception at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

The nominating companies can be the venues, the technology providers that provided the installation hardware and software, the architects and design firms who conceived the project, as well as the system integrators that did the installation. A single company is permitted to submit multiple nominations for separate projects. The cost to enter the DSE Apex Awards is $95 per entry.
