Marking another impressive year of entries, CEDIA (the Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association) has unveiled the shortlisted finalists for the CEDIA Awards 2015. Celebrating its 10thanniversary this year, the scheme awards the best projects in smart home integration, including the best media rooms, home cinemas, integrated homes and super yacht installations across the EMEA region.
“CEDIA represents the best organisations in home technology and our annual awards act as a great opportunity to celebrate and showcase the outstanding work of our members each year,” says Wendy Griffiths, Executive Director of CEDIA EMEA. “This year proved to be one of the most competitive yet, provoking much debate and deliberation throughout the judging process. The volume of international entries from India, Switzerland, South Africa amongst many others has increased this year, resulting in more international shortlisted entries this year than ever before. We commend all entrants into this year’s scheme, and look forward to seeing the winners unveiled at our Gala Dinner in London on the evening of Friday 3rd July.”
