TECHNOLOGY CENTRE AWARDS 2024

Awards Categories

Company Social Responsibility

We're looking for companies that have made a real difference in their community. Nominees should show specific initiatives they've carried out in the past year, like supporting charities, schools, or community groups, or giving employees time off to volunteer.

Innovation Impact

We're seeking companies that have made a real difference through innovation in the past year. Whether it's through creative product or process design, innovative collaborations with others, or out-of-the-box thinking, nominees should showcase specific initiatives they've implemented. These initiatives should demonstrate how they've solved real business problems, either within their organisation or for the industry at large, through forward-thinking approaches.

Inspiring Technologist

We are dedicated to recognising the collaboration between technology and creative. The past year has seen exciting advancements in Virtual Production, AI, FAST channels, and much more. However, navigating these new technologies can be overwhelming for non-tech folks. That's where inspiring technologists come in.

We're looking for nominees who inspire their colleagues and clients. They should show how they've sparked change in their organisation, or wider broadcast community and made a significant impact in the past year.

Leader of the Year

This award honours leaders, at any level, in our industry. The past year has been tough for us all, and in times like these, strong leadership is crucial.

We're looking for nominees who lead teams, whether they're Team Leaders, Managers, or C Suite. They should show how their leadership has made a real impact, whether internally within their organisation or externally visible to clients and the industry at large.

Production Influencer

At the RTS Technology Centre, we value the collaboration between technology and creative or operational disciplines. The past year has seen many exciting advancements in Virtual Production, Remote Production, AI, FAST channels, Post Production, and more.

We're seeking nominees who are recognised as influential leaders for progress and collaboration within their organisation. They don't necessarily need to work in a technology department, but they should demonstrate how they've made a real impact in the past year on a specific project or way of working that has genuinely improved how production or operational teams carry out their tasks.

Sustainability Impact

We're looking for companies that have made a real impact on sustainability in the past year. Whether it's reducing their own emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3) or implementing eco-friendly initiatives, products, or processes, nominees should be able to show tangible data that proves their sustainability efforts.

Unsung Hero

This award aims to celebrate individuals in tech, operations, or production. Despite recent industry challenges, many unsung heroes have quietly made a big impact in their company.

We're seeking nominees who've helped their organisation shine. Whether it's supporting teammates with tech or operations, improving customer satisfaction, or boosting company revenues, we want to recognise those, at all levels of an organisation, who go the extra mile.

Young Person of the Year

The RTS Technology Centre has a history of honouring talented individuals. Despite industry challenges like the pandemic, ad revenue fluctuations, and the US writers' strike, it's vital to celebrate young talent in our field.

We're looking for nominees under 30 who've made a real difference in their company. Whether it's streamlining processes, helping teammates with tech, or enhancing customer satisfaction, we want to recognise those who've made their workplace better.
