2018 Nominations for the Visionary Spotlight Awards Now Open

Beka Business Media and ChannelVision Magazine have announced the opening for nominations the 2018 Visionary Spotlight Awards (VSAs).

The VSA competition highlights both channel and service provider innovation in communications. The awards honor outstanding products, services and deployments across categories, with a new focus this year on emerging technology arenas, including SD-WAN, cybersecurity and new unified communications (UC) models.

Award winners will exemplify the communications industry’s overall level of rapid innovation, showcasing their capacity for future-thinking execution, and creativity and feature set differentiation.  Winning entries will show off a cornucopia of opportunities for channel partners to boost their roles as trusted providers for business success.

“We couldn’t be more delighted to once again honor the top innovators and industry visionaries in the channel and communications space,” said Berge Kaprelian, president of Beka Business Media. “Our goal is to shine a light on the rapid acceleration of meaningful, cutting-edge deployments and product/service design and engineering across our industry today. We’re interested in acting as a resource for channel partners, and the VSAs are aimed squarely at reflecting the hottest areas of opportunities for channel partners today.

Nominations can be submitted via a downloadable form or online, both accessible at www.visionaryspotlightawards.com. Please also visit the website for a list of nomination categories. The deadline for submissions is March 2, 2018.
