Industry leaders from across Europe descended on 8 Northumberland Avenue in London last night for the fourth edition of the European Video Awards (EVAs). Hosted by VideoWeek’s own Editor-in-Chief Vincent Flood and ‘queen of ad tech’ Joanna Burton, the awards celebrated the very best innovation and creativity in the European CTV and video advertising market.
We had an extremely strong pool of nominees from some of Europe’s leading broadcasters, brands, ad tech companies, and agencies, and the judges were impressed by the quality of this year’s entries.
VideoWeek would like to offer a massive congratulations to all of last night’s winners, as well as all who were nominated and shortlisted for awards. As Vincent highlighted in his opening speech, in an industry so defined by the speed of its innovation and breadth of creativity, any work thats stands out as worthy of an EVA nomination deserves congratulations.
