Follow on Google News | OASYS sponsors “Most Innovative Technology” category at 2011 AIBsAssociation for International Broadcasting announces OASYS, a leader in software-based automated playout solutions, as the first sponsor for their 2011 international media excellence awards, the AIBs.
By: Association for International Broadcasting OASYS has been delivering software-based automated playout solutions for two decades delivering reliable on-air operation and providing productivity gains by allowing quick and easy creation, management and assembly of content for playout. OASYS has chosen to sponsor the “Most Innovative Technology” category at the AIBs. The demands of new platforms and cross-media publishing mean that new technological solutions need to be employed in broadcasting centres that allow producers and journalists to craft programmes for multiple outlets. At the same time, the production process needs to be as simple as possible. This award therefore will recognise the company that has developed the most appropriate, useful and transferable technological solution for the international broadcasting industry, in production, scheduling, distribution or in content repurposing. Describing the decision to sponsor the awards, OASYS CEO Mark Errington commented “OASYS is honoured to work with the AIB in promoting excellence and innovation in the media industry. It is always nice to celebrate success and the winners of the annual AIB International Excellence Awards should feel justly proud that they have been acknowledged for their hard work, dedication and creativity, by both their peers and experts. We look forward to seeing a record level of entries in 2011 and very much look forward to meeting all the entrants in London in November.” Simon Spanswick, CEO of the AIB, commented “We are delighted to welcome a company of OASYS’ reputation and background in the broadcasting industry as a sponsor for the awards, and especially for the “Most Innovative Technology” category given their standing in this area. Further sponsors will be announced in the near future.” Full information about the 2011 AIBs and how to enter is available online at theaibs.tv and www.aib.org.uk.
