PRAGUE – YNOT Events announced today that the ninth annual YNOT Awards will take place on Saturday September 14, honoring the best and brightest companies and executives in the online adult entertainment industry.
The 2019 YNOT Awards will again be held during The European Summit in Prague, at the city’s famous National House of Vinohrady. Joining YNOT Awards producer Jay Kopita on stage as co-host will be CK, business partner and videographer of celebrated cam performer LittleRedBunny, while Cristina from RichGirls Studio serves as a presenter.
CK first partnered with LittleRedBunny in 2014, working on projects like the LittleRedBunny Academy and helping to develop the State of the Webcam Survey for cam models and studio owners.
Kopita called the YNOT Awards “one of the longest-running and best-attended b2b awards shows in the industry” – a fact he attributed in part to YNOT’s longstanding partnership with The European Summit.
“We continue to set the bar high and greatly enjoy working with TES,” Kopita said. “This year. there will be some noticeable and welcome changes, with our biggest focus being representing more attending companies at TES and making the night even more enjoyable to all who attend.”
One of the changes for this year’s YNOT Awards will be a reduced number of categories – under 30, compared to 38 at the 2018 show – as part of an effort to shorten the show’s duration and keep things moving quickly.
Unlike the YNOT Cam Awards, which will take place in Hollywood on August 7 and celebrate the industry’s best cam performers and clips artists, the YNOT Awards in Prague focus mainly on business awards, designed to recognize the industry’s leading companies and executives.
YNOT Award nominees will be announced in early July. The voting period will then begin on July 9 and run through August 16. As in past years, only those whose adult industry membership has been vetted and verified will be permitted to vote. Further details on the voting procedure will be announced in advance of the nomination period.
The awards show will be preceded by dinner and an open bar for VIP guests. Kopita said while VIP seating is largely sold out, there are still some tables available. Those interested in reserving VIP seating should contact Kopita at jay@ynot.com.
The YNOT Awards and the VIP treatment of attendees is made possible by the generous support of the event’s sponsors. This year’s Platinum sponsor is RichGirls Studio, Diamond Sponsors include Best Studios and BongaCash and the 2019 Gold sponsors are Gaming Adult, Chaturbate, MojoHost, Cams.com, Traffic Factory, Sex.cam, Intimate.io, The Webcam Lab, Jahlonline Studio, ImLive, Flirt4Free, ModelClips, Terpon and ZORI Studio.
