We want to promote the industry’s good work so that our community knows exactly what’s happening behind the scenes. If you’re running an initiative to welcome newcomers into your business then we want to shine the spotlight on you. Why? Because the future of our industry depends on it. Live events, festivals, TV, film, broadcast, AV, touring, theatre, corporate events, none of it thrives unless organisations open doors, create fair opportunities, and actively invest in the next generation. These awards celebrate the businesses who aren’t just talking about change, they’re making it happen.

This is about one thing, paying it forward.
