Nemeton TV brought home the gold last night (Thursday, May 19th) at the All-Ireland Marketing Awards gala dinner, held at the Double Tree Hotel, Dublin, as they walked away with the Gnó as Gaeilge Award for the second time.
The country’s leading television production company first won the award back in 2013 and CEO Irial Mac Murchú said: “Winning this award is testament to the hard work of our team. Marketing in Irish helps us to stand out in an environment where people are bombarded daily with the noise of very similar messages, all vying for attention. The Irish language is naturally associated with creativity and this helps us to attract new clients at home and abroad.”
The Waterford-based company beat off stiff competition from household names such as RTÉ, Tayto Park and Trinity College Dublin at the 10th annual awards ceremony.
Organised by The Marketing Institute of Ireland, the All Ireland Marketing Awards is the nation’s premier means of recognising the success of Irish marketing professionals and acknowledging their major contribution to the ongoing process of strengthening the economy of our island.
Specifically, the Gnó as Gaeilge Award looks to reward companies who recognise the potential of the Irish language in their marketing campaigns to support branding and positioning in the marketplace.
With productions such as this weekend’s Guinness PRO12 semi-finals coverage and the recent Allianz National League Finals on TG4, Nemeton TV leads the way in innovative sports programming. The company will also provide satellite broadcast facilities to RTÉ and Sky Sports during this Summer’s vast schedule of sports events.
With up to 50 full-time staff and the same amount of regular freelancers, Nemeton TV also provides technical facilities to broadcasters across the world, as well as online streaming and video archiving solutions
