"It’s always great to be acknowledged – especially in such a competitive industry, where one needs to constantly be thinking creatively, innovating and operating differently," says Trent Key, MD of Moonsport.
The
Sports Industry Awards aims to celebrate the best work over the last year. Moonsport was a finalist in four categories:
Audio-visual Content of the Year,
Best Use of Social Media,
Cutting Edge Sports Award and

"All of the agencies we were up against are industry leaders, and the award certainly could have gone to any of them," adds Key.
In the past year, Moonsport has captured Mark Beaumont’s Circumnavigation by Bicycle in an international digital media campaign, constructed and operated the largest digital screen in Africa at the Cape Town Sevens, won an
SAB Media Award and worked with global federations, personalities and sports codes.
