CEDIA revealed the winners of the 2021 EMEA and Global CEDIA Awards at its sell-out, in-person ceremony held at Illuminate at the Science Museum in London last night (11 November).

With 375 industry professionals in attendance, and a global audience watching via a live stream, the event celebrated the best in the industry from around the world, with CEDIA EMEA members from France, India, Portugal, South Africa, and the UK taking home accolades.

The big winners of the night from the EMEA region were Macbee from India, winning a total of four awards including the Global Best Home Cinema category for the company’s ‘The Camellias’ project, and BNC Technology from South Africa who took two awards, including the Best Global Media Room award for its ‘The Arabian’ scheme.

CEDIA Board chairman, Rob Sutherland opened the event with a welcome speech. Commenting on the evening, he said: “The spectacular Illuminate at the Science Museum was a wonderful setting to acknowledge excellence in the design and application of technology from our creative and talented members.

“This was truly a special year to take home a CEDIA trophy, as we joined together for the first time since 2019, following the disruption caused by the global pandemic. Everybody celebrated the outstanding achievements of our award winners in style and we all look forward with a renewed sense of optimism to a bright and positive future ahead for our industry.”
