I view the presence of such a high powered audience here today, and the presence of repeat sponsors, as a great endorsement for the IndIAA awards. Keeping in mind the phase we are hopefully emerging from, we have sculpted our awards event around a theme - that acknowledges and inspires the need to show - that there is good in everything around us. It just needs to be tapped into by us”
