The Latest Industry News for the Exciting World of Production.

The submission deadline for the fifth annual Rock Our World Awards is one week away; all nominations need to be in by June 21, 2013. The awards, which recognize extraordinary achievement of products, projects or product application by PLASA Members, were designed to acknowledge the genius of both the creator of technology and the designers or integrators who apply it. The process is easy and helps make your colleagues shine.

Anyone may nominate a PLASA Member for the awards, so if you've seen something revolutionary that has rocked your world in the last year, now is your chance to tell us. It could be a piece of equipment you worked with, something you saw at a trade show, read about in an industry magazine, or an event you experienced. It could also be something your company created. Nominations for the 2013 awards must have been available in the market or premiered between October 1, 2011 and June 21, 2013 and must not have been previously nominated. Nominations close June 21, 2013.

A panel of judges, including well-known industry veterans and rising young stars will judge the nominations and finalists will be announced in early September. The winners will be announced at PLASA's annual cocktails and awards ceremony at the LDI show in November.
