Zum Jahresende häufen sich die Award-Verleihungen – während das katholische Europa am Freitag mit Allerheiligen an einem Feiertag die Arbeit ruhen ließ, feierte die ProAV-Branche in London bei den AV Interactive Awards. Die riesige Award-Show ist ein relevanter Business Case, bei der sich die Teilnehmer in feine Abendgarderobe werfen, um die Auszeichnungen gemeinsam mit Kunden zu feiern.
