SIIA 2023: AV Momentum Celebrated with Rejuvenation

The 2023 edition of Systems Integration India Awards (SIIA) – Indian AV’s most prided Awards event – organized recently in Mumbai – simply lived up to its punchline. Celebrating AV Momentum- Yes. Despite the oddities of kind, the bespoke event had not only renewed its cherished charm but also upped the ante for more, with newer participants walking the haloed dais.

Happening as it did in-person after the COVID-induced interruption of three years, the event, while rejuvenating the old vibes, has created new vistas and new verve.

A snappy account.

…………………………………………………………

SIIA 2023 – the Venue, the Vibes, and the Verve

When the curtains rose on the Hriday Marquee – a specially carved out convention facility at the luxurious Sofitel hotel at BKC in Mumbai – on the evening of 25 October, 2023, it was a much familiar, yet different setting, literally.

The physical setting was evidently different, having moved from the long-accustomed Bombay Exhibition Grounds of NESCO, to the premium hospitality venue at the up-market BKC. However, the intent and content was much the same, if not higher with some anticipated anxieties.

While being all familiar for its tone and tune, the rhythm was certainly a little higher with a few new notes being added to the composition (of the celebration).

Happening in-person as it did after the pandemic-induced gap of three years, and having been through the roughs and troughs of the trade, carried the weight of all, while hoping for the high.

While the fervour was again familiarly high, it also raised a sort of mild fears of uncertainty- for a sole reason of the event’s chief patron was conspicuous by his absence- owing to a forced medical emergency!

Mihir Joshee – the familar voice for most events – even as he took the podium, played a video message from Thomas Richard Prakasam, Managing Director of Spinworkz (Singapore) Pte Ltd, and chief organizer of SIIA 2023.

Thomas, who had an unexpected medical emergency preventing his flying in from Singapore, briefly explained the journey that SIIA 2023 was even as he introduced the Jury panel that officiated the adjudication of nominations.

Ram Bhavanashi, Director of Shyamindira Media Networks Pvt Ltd, who officiated the proceedings, began with thanking the event Partners with trophies for their support.

SIIA 2023 had as many as seven Partners that included five Category Partners, one Event Sound Partner, and one normal partner:

SIIA 2023: Ram Bhavanashi (fourth from right) in the league of the Event Partners

Corporate Category: Sennheiser

Education Category: Clearone

Government Category: Kramer

Infotainment Category: Barco

Projection Mapping Category: Epson

Partner: Christie Digital

Event Sound Partner: ANSATA

In a nutshell:

A total of 44 nominations for three budget ranges each of six Award categories – including a newly carved out sixth category – in addition to three specially created Awards for individual excellence, tallying to a total of 24 awards, it was a big deal in its own right- with all the right reasons.

The domain of Projection Mapping – as it had been exponentially expanding over the last few years so much so that – it demanded a separate category status. Hence the sixth Award Category.

Similarly, the SIIA organizers have long been contemplating the idea of adding “Individual Excellence” awards to the existing stable of institutional honours. Having been through four editions over the last seven years, it was felt it’s time they did it. Hence the awards for Individuals who excelled in their contributions in three different areas:

  • AV Professional of the Year
  • AV Women Professional of the Year
  • Young AV Professional of the Year

The event appeared to have peaked its momentum of celebration when the Award for AV Professional of the Year was announced.

Even as Sarah Joyce, Chief Global Officer at AVIXA waited for Mrs. Deepali Javeri for receiving the award on behalf of her husband, the entire audience paid a standing ovation as a tribute to Ratnesh who personified the highest degree of perfection in his line.
