The BEST of InfoComm 2019 Awards

Welcome to the 2019 Best of InfoComm Awards! Unlike ANY other awards program at InfoComm, manufacturers can’t pay to enter — in fact, they can’t even nominate their own products. We are NOT pay-for-play.

What do we mean? Well, EVERY OTHER product award program in and around InfoComm are what are known as pay-for-play. Pay-for-play means you can’t win an award unless you pay to enter your product — this is not only unethical but problematic (and limiting) as, if you don’t pay, you can’t play — or win. Thus, small companies with small marketing budgets can’t win product awards — even when they have the best product. So, our Best of InfoComm Awards take into consideration EVERY SINGLE PRODUCT exhibited at the show.
