European Podcast Awards – and the Winners are…
The winners of the first European Podcast Awards have been announced.
Choosing from ten participating countries across Europe and over 750 nominations, a panel of judges awarded the inaugural European Podcast Awards to five winners from Germany, England and Spain.
The European podcasts of the year 2008/2009 are:
- Schlaflos in München [Sleepless in Munich] / Germany
- The Naked Scientists / United Kingdom
- Comunicando Podcast [Communicating Podcast] / Spain
- CoffeBreak Spanish / United Kingdom
- ComputerClub 2 / Germany
David Prest, BBC producer and the English member of the panel of judges, says: “The award does a much needed job all over Europe in recognising excellence in podcasting. These podcasts are clever, creative, imaginative and extremely valuable programmes with high production values.”
About the European Podcast Awards:
More than 750 nominated podcasts from 10 countries were judged by a combination of online voting and an international jury in four categories. Entries were evaluated on the basis of consistently defined criteria and awarded up to 625 points. Point totals were then used to determine national winners and the leading European entries. Jury members hail from all represented countries and include radio producers, journalists and podcasters.
