About the Streaming Awards
The 2018 Streaming Awards recognize talented members of the live streaming community in a people choice voting system. Nominations for the 2018 Streaming Awards come from the live streaming community, Broadcasting Facebook groups and show floor recommendations from the 2018 NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) show in Las Vegas, Nevada. An 21st-century audience response voting system will display the results of the people choice on a live stream dashboard available on YouTube 2 weeks leading up to the live event. The YouTube Live API will be used to incorporate live audience chat messages into the broadcast and special guest from our favorite nominees will be invited on the show from around the world to present the awards. The first annual Streaming Awards is sponsored by PTZOptics, NewTek, Wirecast, Telestream, Osprey Video, xKeys, mimoLive and HuddleCamHD.
