Dear Friends, We hope that all of you have had an enjoyable summer, and hopefully you’ve found time to enjoy some sunshine in-between your commitments. It has been a very busy time for us, with lots of activities in the pipeline for the coming months, which we look forward to informing you of. In this update, we are delighted to announce that another company has achieved InfoComm’s APEx designation, becoming the 47th firm to do so. Read below for more information. Meanwhile, it’s full steam ahead for the AV Awards, including the exciting new European CTS® of the Year Award. Some of us will be present at the Shortlist party on 1 Sept. in London, so if you’re attending, do say hello! We look forward to seeing many of our AV industry colleagues there. Sincerely, |

European CTS of the Year Award
Shortlisted entrants for the inaugural European CTS® of the Year Award have been expressing their delight at receiving their nominations. It is the first time that this category has been part of the AV Awards program, which was open to all of our CTS holders in the region. Entries came from across Europe, and Colin Jacobs (Snelling Business Systems), Daniel Goldmann (Renox Audiovision GmbH), Justin Paveley (Focus 21) and Václav Jezbera (AV MEDIA) all have been nominated for the accolade. Václav Jezbera was stunned to be nominated. “Being shortlisted took me completely by surprise,” he said. “I didn’t know I had been nominated by my colleagues. But it´s very nice to be shortlisted.” Colin Jacobs was humbled by the recognition. He said, “What delights me most is the recognition it brings to SBS, a company that started as a two-man team, with myself being one of the two.” The shortlisted four will be attending AV Awards Night on 30 Sept., when the overall winner will be revealed. |
