Enter the 2008 IVCA Awards

IVCA Awards: Setting The Standard!

IVCA Awards are recognised internationally as marks of excellence for effective business and public sector communications in video, live events, interactive media projects, business television and websites.

Winning an IVCA Award really matters, as it can bring enhanced profile and substantial business benefits.

The Awards set a standard of excellence and introduce clients to programmes and projects which have made a significant impact on business. There is no higher accolade for creativity, originality, production expertise and sheer effectiveness.

All Gold, Silver and Bronze winners will be presented with their awards on stage before an audience of commissioners, government representatives, industry colleagues and the media. The Gala Awards Ceremony will be held at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London, on the evening of Friday 4th April 2008.

Bookings will be taken from January 2008.
