The AIMIA Awards, also known as “The Amys” in the digital industry, are a celebration of the greatest work from Australia’s Digital Content, Services and Applications Industry. They recognise work across a range of consumer, business, government and not-for-profit categories.

Says Tim O’Neill, joint managing director of Reactive and AIMIA national president: “The AIMIA Awards praise the exceptional work we see from the digital industry in Australia and New Zealand. We look forward to celebrating with the very best from the digital industry and awarding their innovation and excellence.”

This year, the awards have been restructured to include 11 main categories and 37 subcategories. The total number of awards available to enter has increased from 22 to 41. The main categories include Websites & Online Services, Smartphones, Tablets and Digital Advertising or Communication, and within each of these there will be a best of the best award.

Now in its 20th year, the AIMIA Awards are the longest running and most prestigious awards in Australia’s Digital Industry. Entries open today, Tuesday 2nd October and close at 5pm AEDT on Friday 8th November. The winners will be announced at the 20th Annual AIMIA Awards in Sydney in March 2014.
