AVEX nominated for International Award

News

We are proud to announce that our company has been selected as a finalist for the prestigious international AV Awards! These international AV Awards will be presented on November 1, 2024, during an awards show in London. This nomination is a recognition of the pioneering work AVEX has accomplished at the NBC Conference Center in Nieuwegein, Netherlands.

The AV Awards are prestigious within the audiovisual sector. The event is organised by AV Magazine and is intended to celebrate excellence and innovation in audiovisual technology and projects.

The nomination for the AV Awards in the “Venue Project of the Year” category confirms the remarkable collaboration between AVEX and NBC and their joint ambition to continually raise the bar for conference and event technology. The project demonstrates how innovation and technology can work together to create a future-proof, flexible, and high-quality event venue.

Rebuilt into a state-of-the-art event location

In September 2022, the NBC Conference Center was devastated by a fire. Following this tragic event, NBC and AVEX joined forces not only to restore the AV installations but also to transform the congress center into a state-of-the-art event location. AVEX, the trusted AV partner of NBC since 1992, played a significant role in this transformation.

This nomination is a wonderful recognition of the hard work and dedication of all our colleagues at AVEX, who have transformed the NBC Conference Center into a state-of-the-art event location with their expertise and commitment.

Impressive 3D projection decor

One of the most striking features of the renewed NBC is the largest 3D projection set in the Netherlands, spanning a stage over 45 meters wide. This set provides an impressive, immersive visual experience that elevates storytelling during events to a new level. Additionally, nine five-meter-high LED columns have been installed in the hospitality area, displaying personalized content and enhancing both the aesthetic and functional appeal of the venue.

Flexible AV system with network management

The project also included the implementation of an advanced AV-over-IP system, enabling a network of AV connections throughout the building. This system offers NBC unparalleled flexibility and control, as every network port becomes a potential AV connection. From a central Master Control room, NBC’s AV team can easily manage audiovisual equipment in the hospitality area, 22 sub-rooms, and two large event halls, including content management such as presentations, digital signage, and customer branding.

This innovative system has not only significantly improved NBC’s operational efficiency but has also enhanced the user experience for both guests and staff. The system allows staff to respond quickly and efficiently to guest requests, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience. For speakers and guests, it means they can easily connect their devices, with screens automatically adjusted without technical complications.

The nomination for the AV Awards in the “Venue Project of the Year” category confirms the remarkable collaboration between AVEX and NBC and their joint ambition to continually raise the bar for conference and event technology. The project demonstrates how innovation and technology can work together to create a future-proof, flexible, and high-quality event venue.

With this nomination, AVEX and its team are recognized for their commitment to innovation, reliability, and delivering unparalleled quality in AV solutions, positioning the NBC Conference Center as a leader in the events industry once again.
