European Digital Media Awards Presented

Monday 14. April 2014 - The world's most innovative digital news media - from giants like the Guardian and Norway's VG to the smaller DOTYK, the first tablet-only weekly in the Czech Republic - were honoured Tuesday evening (8 April) as winners of the European Digital Media Awards, the annual prizes from the World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers (WAN-IFRA).

The awards, which recognise outstanding work by European publishers in digital advertising, data visualization, tablet publishing, mobile service, news websites, reader engagement, online video, and outstanding new projects, were presented in a ceremony during Digital Media Europe 2014, WAN-IFRA’s annual digital event in London.
The awards attracted 107 entries from 48 European publishing houses in 21 countries this year.
“Nothing changes faster than digital media, and these awards reflect the diversity of innovative approaches that news media are adopting in the face of disruption,” said Vincent Peyrègne, CEO of WAN-IFRA. “The brilliance and appeal of these winning projects is inspiring for the entire industry.”
