As part of a change to our voting procedure back in 2023, the TPi Academy is responsible for selecting the shortlist for all awards categories. The Academy is largely made up of the individual winners of the previous year’s Awards and will serve as part of the voting panel for one year, putting them out of the running for the TPi Awards 2025. The Academy also has several representatives for various organisations within the live events space as well as members of the TPi editorial team.
