Recognizing the finest achievements in custom installation and the best new custom-installation targeted products, the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) has announced the winners of the 2023 Smart Home Division Mark of Excellence (MoE) Awards.
The awards were presented in an evening ceremony at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas following rigorous judging by an independent panel of industry experts.
“The MOE Awards recognize residential custom installation projects performed by professional integrators, as well as consumer technology products and services that custom integrators can use as part of their core business or as add-on solutions,” says Jason Knott, Editor-in-Chief of CE Pro.
“Despite the pandemic that shutdown R&D departments for months, the supply chain shortage that limited product development, and the lack of manpower to deploy technology, the 2023 Mark of Excellence Awards had an impressive number of entries.”
All entries are highlighted on CTA.tech and cepro.com and will be included in the March 2023 issue of CE Pro Magazine.
