Once again the UK Internet Service Providers Association (ISPA<\/a>) has announced the official finalists for their forthcoming 18th annual 2016 Internet industry awards, which sees Vodafone<\/a> leading the way with 6 nominations and BT<\/a> short-listed for “Best Consumer Fixed Broadband<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As usual this year’s awards have been tweaked with the addition of several new categories, which should all be fairly self-explanatory: Best Cloud Product, Best Marketing Campaign and Best CPE Hardware (the latter reference to CPE reflects customer devices like broadband routers and modems etc.).<\/p>\n

Otherwise many people might be a bit surprised to see BT<\/a> pop up on the short-list for “Best Consumer Fixed Broadband<\/em>“, particularly given how poorly they tend to rate in other surveys and Ofcom<\/a>’s own complaint statistics. Vodafone<\/a>’s broadband service is also included, but they’re still a bit too new for anybody to have formed a real impression of their service.<\/p>\n

The awards are reached by a mix of scrutiny from a “panel of industry experts<\/em>” and a degree of “rigorous technical testing<\/em>,” with the latter tending to focus on the connectivity categories (e.g. broadband, VoIP and web hosting providers).<\/p>\n

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

“The companies short-listed at this year\u2019s ISPAs play a vital role in connecting the UK and this year has an incredible range of companies nominated. We are proud to say that this is the 18th ISPAs and I look forward to finding out the winners at the gala black tie ceremony on 7 July.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The shortlist for the Internet Hero<\/strong> and Internet Villain<\/strong> gongs tend to follow later, in a separate update, and won\u2019t be announced today. Otherwise the winners will all be unveiled during an event held at the prestigious Brewery in the City of London on Thursday 7th July 2016.<\/p>\n
