A celebration of success - it's started

The first entries in this year's AIBs - our international media excellence awards - have started to arrive.

It's great to see this celebration of success taking centre stage in so many broadcasters and production companies around the world...in this seventh year of the AIBs, we're looking forward to a remarkable crop of entries from factual programme makers around the world who want to see their work highlighted internationally.

The awards do not overlook important related areas - there's a category for marketing (after all, the audience needs to be enthused to consume output) and for technology (we need to keep pushing technological boundaries to keep broadcasting fresh and up-to-the-minute).

AIB also rewards on-air talent with our international personality of the year category - one for radio, one for television.

So make sure you get your entries together and into AIB no later than 1 July 2011. See how to enter online at http://www.aib.org.uk/AIBs2011/entrybook.html.
