Installation is inviting nominations for this year’s Best of Show Awards at IBC2026, recognising the best AV and broadcast products and solutions on display at the show, as the lines between the two industries continue to blur.
The awards are open to IBC2026 exhibitors, offering a platform for companies to raise awareness of new products and solutions they will be launching or showcasing at the RAI, Amsterdam, from September 11-14. Installation is one of several participating Future B2B brands, alongside TVBEurope, TV Tech, Radio World, ITPro, AVTechnology and Sound & Video Contractor, with each publication announcing its own list of winners at the show.
Nominations will be reviewed by a panel of independent industry experts, with factors including general quality and relevance of the product, design and build quality, business and operational benefits, innovation, technical excellence, cost-effectiveness and game-changing ability all taken into account.
All nominees will receive a fully-licensed nominee badge for use in digital and print promotions. Winners will receive a complimentary trophy, a fully-licensed winner’s badge for use domestically and overseas, winner social assets, and dedicated editorial coverage across participating brands, including online, newsletter and social promotion.
Winning products will be featured across Installation and other participating brand magazines and media partner websites, reaching readers across the AV, media and broadcast industries.
Nominations are open until 23:59 CET on Friday, August 28. Full details and entry submissions are available here.
