WORLD KNX® AWARD JURY…
The KNX® Award, which was created in 1996, is a reflection of the growth of KNX® around the world. Initially just a very few projects from Germany and Switzerland were entered, whereas in recent years more and more projects have been submitted from across the globe. At the ninth ceremony on 17 April 2012, at Light+Building in Frankfurt, a total of 14 international KNX® projects received awards in 8 different categories, in recognition of their exceptional originality, sustainability, and future orientation.
Selecting the winners was no easy task for the jury: more than twice as many entries were received this year as just two years ago, with entries coming from 43 different countries. More than 1,500 guests from 76 countries attended the award ceremony, which formed part of the KNX® Top Event at the Light+Building trade fair. The awards were presented by Iris Jeglitza-Moshage (Member of Management Board, Messe Frankfurt),
Anke Hüneburg (Head of Energy Division, ZVEI), Janne Skogberg (AIE President), Joost Demarest (Director of KNX® Association), Simon Bartley (WorldSkills President), Hans-Georg Krabbe (President of KNX® Germany), Karl-Heinz Bertram (Vice President, ZVEH), Benjamin Houghton and Kieran Doherty (both WorldSkills 2011 gold medal winners). The award-winning projects entered from Asia, the USA and Europe testifies the diversity of ingenious solutions being developed using KNX®.
We are extremely happy to announce that eibmarkt®.com GmbH, a 100% subsidiary of the EIBMARKT GmbH Holding, with their KNX® yacht project KONNEXA 42 has won the KNX® AWARD 2012 in the category "Special”.
