TVBAwards 2017 winners announced

The winners of the TVBAwards for 2017 have been announced.

Part of MediaTech 360 week, the six awards were presented at the Millennium Mayfair Hotel on Wednesday evening.

The fourth annual ceremony celebrated the various success stories in our industry, as we recognise and reward those pushing the boundaries in the production, management, and delivery of today's media content.

Naomi Climer, former president of the Institute of Engineering and Technology, received the marquee Lifetime Achievement honour, becoming the first woman to receive the award.

I'm really thrilled to receive this award. Climer said. It's such an honour. It was really wonderful to recall the highlights of my career, and it's been great to see so many familiar faces.

Dejero and Pilgrim Media Group were presented with the Achievement in Live Production award for their work The Runner, while Technicolor won the award for Achievement in Post Production for the part it played in the delivery of Victoria.

ATP Media was presented with the Overall Broadcast Production award for its ATP World Tour, with Open Broadcast Systems winning the Rising Star Award.
