Launched in 2003, The Digital Media Awards were engineered to raise awareness of the emerging digital media sector in Ireland and more importantly to act as a showcase for the varied dynamic works being created by companies and third level institutions across the broad spectrum of categories in Digital Media.
On Thursday 25th of February 2010 the industry will assemble at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Santry to honour this year’s winners. The annual Digital Media Awards will present awards in 21 categories, to the companies, people and organisations producing the most stylish, creative and pioneering work in their field.
The Digital Media Awards continuously seek to recognise and reward excellence in the Digital Media Sector by introducing new categories, involving more people and generating more press interest with each event. Last Year’s overall winner of the Grand Prix was Interactive Return with Online Marketing Ireland Channel.
With the Blogging category back for 2010 we have also introduced four new categories to the awards this year to reflect the changes and advances in the Digital Media Industry; Best Web Design/Development Agency, Best in Media, Best in Mobile Internet Innovation and The Viral Event category which is decided on by you!
See the categories page for a full list of categories and criteria. All entries can all be submitted online and will be open until October. The Digital Media Award judges will be evaluating entries from November 2009 and will release the finalists in December 2009.
