Honouring excellence
Television quickly followed radio in the BBC timeline, with experimental broadcasts in 1929 and the first public services in 1935. More recently, BBC iPlayer was launched in 2007 – a powerful, pioneering streaming service providing access to huge amounts of content. In a happy coincidence, the BBC’s first home in Savoy Place was provided by what is now known as the Institution of Engineering and Technology – and one of IBC’s owners.
IBC has announced that its most prestigious award, the IBC 2022 International Honour for Excellence, is to be presented to the BBC as part of its centenary celebrations. The world’s first public broadcaster went on air in 1922, and BBC 100 is a celebration of everything that’s come since. IBC has stated its desire to recognise the moment that sparked the whole content and technology industry it serves.
