In particular, we are seeking to drive innovative collaboration between broadcast, film and digital content companies. By sponsoring the Best Innovation Award we are hoping to encourage even more digital content on screen.'

Now in its ninth year, the awards are open to local organisations that have designed or commissioned digital or IT-based projects over the past 12 months, which may include website, DVD, animation, wireless or SMS projects.
