Media 24
Thursday’s Bookmarks Awards, publisher 24.com was awarded the Best Publishing House Award. Says Geoff Cohen, general manager of 24.com, “We are honoured to have been acknowledged by our peers in the digital media industry. The award is a highlight for us this year and really inspires us to redouble our commitment to continue growing our digital footprint.”
24.com also took home the following awards at last week’s event: in the publisher category, bronze for Channel24 and silver for Food24, News24 and Health24; in the mobile site – publisher category, bronze for m.news24.com; in the handheld/phone (applications and tools) category, silver for News24; and in the multi-platform publisher category they received bronze for News24.
This is not the first time that 24.com has been recognised by the Bookmarks. At the 2010 awards the publishing house received, amongst others, gold for News24 in the category publishing site and in 2009 News24 won the prestigious black pixel for Best in Show Publishing Category Award.
Says Cohen: “We look forward to creating new products in 2012 that combine our focus on technology, content and community and to continue with the momentum.”
“While the recognition is great as a milestone - our drive remains to grow the market overall so that we can both present great content to growing audiences and offer our commercial partners fantastic new ways for them to tell their stories,” he adds.
Cohen finishes off by thanking the Bookmarks team and the DMMA. “The 2010 Bookmarks was a fantastic event that perfectly showcased the impressive work that is being done in digital media and advertising in South Africa."
