TEMPE, Ariz. — Organizers of The Phoenix Forum announced today the tradeshow's newest production, the Voyeur Community Awards.
“This unique event will recognize the leaders, movers and innovators in our industry who are rising above the noise to lead their respective communities into the rebirth of online entertainment,” organizers said.
The awards program, which will depend on a new voting “academy” to decide winners, is scheduled for Saturday, March 30. The event will be considered the finale to The Phoenix Forum and will include a red-carpet event.
The academy will comprise 50 business leaders, who will be responsible for voting on award recipients from the pool of the best and brightest nominees in various industry communities, including on-screen talent, live cams, streaming video, studios, service providers, gay market and internet technology, among others.
Voyeur Community Awards nominations will be open to the industry on Monday, Nov. 19 through Jan. 4. Names of academy members will be announced on Dec. 4; they are charged with selecting winners by March 8.
Sponsorships are available. Presenting, Diamond and Sapphire sponsorship information is available here.
