The UK Internet Service Providers Association UK (ISPA<\/a>) has once again started their hunt for next year’s Internet industry award finalists and as such they’re now seeking nominations for a string of familiar categories (e.g. Best Superfast Broadband) and some new ones (Best CPE Hardware [Routers etc.]).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As usual entry into the 2016 ISPA<\/a> Awards is free and the deadline to register is 29th January 2016, while the written entry forms need to be complete by 25th March 2016. The three new categories for 2016 include: Best Cloud Product<\/em>, Best Marketing Campaign<\/em> and Best CPE Hardware<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Many of the entrants can expect to be scrutinised by a “panel of industry experts<\/em>“, while broadband ISPs, website hosts and VoIP providers will also undergo “rigorous technical testing<\/em>” in order to help identify a short-list of potential winners.<\/p>\n

Nicholas Lansman, ISPA<\/a> Secretary General, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The ISPA Awards are a great way to celebrate the true breadth and diversity of the UK Internet industry which plays a vital role for the UK economy. With the Internet now essential for consumers and businesses, I look forward to the tough testing and judging that will uncover the best providers in 2016<\/em>.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The results for the ISPA’s 18th annual UK Internet industry awards will then be announced on Thursday 7th July 2016 at The Brewery<\/strong> in the City of London.<\/p>\n
