Celebrating the very, very best in British digital

Back in March, we opened the doors on this year’s BIMA Awards. In July, our judging panels came together to turn a very long list of impressive applications into a shortlist of sheer brilliance. And at a glittering ceremony at IET London this week, we finally announced the winners.

It’s become something of a cliché to talk about the worthiness of all entries. But clichés it is – this year’s entries really were something special, and the winners have set an exceptionally high bar.

So thank you to everyone who entered, to everyone who was part of the judging panel and to everyone who joined us for a brilliant Awards nights. Congratulations to those who made the shortlist. And enormous congratulations to this year’s BIMA Awards winners.
