Nxtedition, a leading provider of broadcast solutions, has been recognized with two prestigious awards at IBC 2024 for its innovative approach to the industry. The company received the IABM BaM Award in the Create category and was also named a TVBEurope Best of Show winner for its XR/Mixed Reality Studio Gallery Control.
The IABM BaM Award, known as a BaMMY, celebrates innovation and creative solutions in media technology. Nxtedition’s achievement in the Create category was praised by the IABM judges, who remarked: “Nxtedition’s innovative approach to creating a truly immersive and engaging experience for viewers is remarkable. Their commitment to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in broadcast technology is commendable.”
Nxtedition also received the TVBEurope Best of Show award for its XR/Mixed Reality Studio Gallery Control. These awards recognize outstanding products and solutions that were exhibited at IBC 2024. They are judged by an independent panel of experts, including industry professionals and TVBEurope editorial staff, based on criteria such as innovation, performance, and cost-effectiveness.
Nxtedition played a key role in developing the XR/MR Studio Gallery Control as part of the IBC Accelerator project, “Evolution of the Control Room – Leveraging XR, Voice, AI & HTML-Based Graphics Solutions.” This project was a collaboration with Al Jazeera, BBC, ITN, Transmixer, Cuez, Loopic, SPX Graphics and many more.
During the presentation, Adam Leah, Creative Director at Nxtedition demonstrated the system live, remotely controlling a studio in Sweden using just a Meta Quest 3 and an iPad, which was met with great enthusiasm and praise.
IBC 2024 was a resounding success for the company, marked not only by these award wins but also by a record number of visitors to the stand. Roger Persson of Nxtedition commented, “IBC 2024 allowed us to showcase how our single, unified platform can genuinely change the way newsrooms work. The level of interest we received confirms that the industry is looking for more integrated, efficient solutions like ours.”
