11 March 2025 11:56 amYes, after 15 years, I'm hanging up my judges hat and retiring from judging the global CEDIA awards. This year will be my final year delving into the technical details of the very best Smart Home projects from across the globe and comparing notes with my fellow judges to find 'the best of the best'.
It's been an amazing journey and one full of learning. I've seen the CEDIA awards grow into a truly engineering-led process of impeccable standards and one that embraces technology for the benefits of entrants and judges alike. I'm happy to be leaving it in the hands of both the incredible CEDIA staff and my amazing fellow judges.
To mark my departure I was interviewed for Hiddenwires magazine about the journey and my experiences. You can read my thoughts in the interview at the link below.
Finally, to all this year's entrants (and those in future years), good luck!
Geoff.
