Assegnati i premi per la nona edizione degli Eventex Awards, competizione che ha visto gareggiare 331 progetti finalisti da 42 nazioni per uno dei più ambiti riconoscimenti dell’industria degli eventi.
Le agenzie che hanno raccolto più premi sono state: XSAGA con 7 primi premi e The Embassy – OIC con 5 primi premi tra cui quello di miglior evento in assoluto. Da segnalare anche la prestazione dell’italiana AIM group che ha trionfato in ben 4 categorie: miglior evento di CSR, miglior congresso medico, miglior Educational e miglior Galà di premiazione.
“Siamo davvero orgogliosi di questi nuovi importanti riconoscimenti al lavoro professionale e di alta qualità offerto dai nostri team” ha affermato Patrizia Semprebene Buongiorno, vicepresidente di AIM Group International. “Come partner strategico dei clienti, cerchiamo di generare il massimo valore dagli eventi, attraverso l’experience design, l’innovazione nei format, la pianificazione strategica e la scelta delle tecnologie più efficaci, come è successo per gli eventi SIAARTI Academy, ESH 2018 e IBA Welcome Dinner appena premiati”.
Tra le venue per eventi segnaliamo invece il doppio trionfo di Almar Jesolo Hotel & Resort come venue più versatile e come miglior hotel.
“Ogni anno cerchiamo di distinguerci – ha commentato il co-founder di Eventex Awards Ovanes Ovanessian parlando della serata di premiazione trasmessa in streaming – Per il prossimo anno potete già aspettarvi ancora più sorprese”.
