All nominees are eligible to win the Internet industry's two most prestigious awards including The Webby Award and The Webby People's Voice Award. International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences members will then select the Webby Winners and announce the results on April 25.
Winners will celebrate at a star-studded ceremony to be held at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City on May 15th. The show will be available on demand on May 16th.
Commented David-Michel Davies, Executive Director of the Webby Awards, "Webby Nominees are using the Internet in incredible ways to bring people together through humor, emotion, innovation, empathy, passion, optimism, and eccentricity-all of the elements that make for truly great Internet. In a year marked by so much discord and divisiveness, The Webby Awards is honored to recognize the work and efforts of our Nominees as they explore new ways to use the Internet to inform our world and bring people together."
