International Awards Group Launches Hive Awards and Announces Call For Entries

New York, NY – International Awards Group launches the Hive Awards.  Created by noted blogger and digital strategist Alan Wolk, the Hive Awards honors the unsung heroes of the internet, as well as rewards the coders, programmers, content developers, strategists and planners for their innovation and creativity within their industry.  

Wolk, the driving force behind the premier of the Hive Awards, is its Executive Director. 

The Hive Awards is open for entries.

Competition categories for the Hive Awards include Job Functions such as User Experience, Information Architecture, Content Strategy, Design, Programming/Coding/Scripting and Data Strategy, to Web/Application Site Types, and Application Types. 

Other categories include Application Functions, such as Front End Code, APIs/Kits, Back End Code, Cloud Apps and System Apps, along with Special Categories such as Blogs and Podcasts.
 
"What makes the Hive Awards unique is that we’re finally giving all the people who work behind the scenes the recognition they deserve. We’re getting input from people in all areas of the business. Not just CEOs. CMOs and CTOs, but the people actually doing the work,” said Wolk.

The extensive variety of industry categories allows each entry within a specific industry to be judged separately, leveling the playing field and offering everyone who has done something unique a chance to be recognized for their work.

“We’ve divided up different job functions by industry category, because we realize that the content strategy for an entertainment site is always going to be a whole lot sexier than the content strategy for an insurance site,” commented Wolk. 

The Hive Awards name comes from the “hive mentality” inherent in building a web site or application; the idea that there are many people with different roles who must work together.

In December, The Hive Awards will also launch a special competition, The Unsung Hero Award. This unique honor allows the internet community an opportunity to nominate potential recipients.

The Hive Awards Advisory Board is comprised of industry professionals representing the most influential minds in the web community, and the 2009 Hive Awards Grand Jury™ will be selected by this board.

All winning entries of the 2009 Hive Awards will be featured in the Showcase section of the website at www.hiveawards.com and will be promoted by our network of representatives in 84 countries around the world.
