"With mandatory reporting requirements in California and those already in place in Europe, sustainability actions are quickly becoming part of normal operations. We are thrilled to be able to highlight those organizations and individuals who are leading the way," said Barbara Lange, CEO of Kibo121 and program director of these awards.
NAB Show will accept nominations from companies and individuals working in the media production and/or technology industries according to the category description and criteria. Judged by an independent panel of experts, award winners will be chosen in each category based on the criteria defined for each category.
The NAB Show Awards for Excellence in Sustainability will be presented during a special ceremony on the main stage of the NAB Show on April 14, 2024, in Las Vegas. The awards ceremony will include a panel discussion, as well as a NAB Show and a presentation of AWS donations to a charity.
The awards program is supported by AWS, a global leader in cloud-based services in the media technology industry. AWS is also known for its commitment to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2040.
