Genelec wins 2026 Inavation Award for Sustainability
Held annually, the Inavation Awards – a highly respected platform for recognition in AV – is a collaboration between Inavate Magazine and ISE Expo designed to spotlight the very finest in global AV design, integration and management. Through the lens of the Awards, it's easier to identify the industry’s most promising innovators and innovations.
With their independent panel of experts, who carefully chose the eight finalists of this year's Sustainability Award, Inavate looked for evidence of genuine long-term commitment to reducing undesirable environmental and social impacts. In doing so, they evaluated a wide range of operational areas, across responsible product design, manufacturing, servicing and company culture.
At Genelec, we’re deeply passionate about minimising unwanted environmental and social impacts – which we’ve strived to do since our founding in 1978. We are always extremely thankful for outside validation of our efforts to offer solutions that you, the investor, can feel proud to use.
“Over our more than 45 years in business, Genelec has stayed true to its core principles of delivering the highest possible levels of quality and sustainability – ensuring these pursuits are equally as important as profitability. While we work tirelessly to develop our approach to sustainability, special moments like this provide a well-deserved pause for our Genelec team to reflect on and enjoy the great achievements and impact they’ve already made.” says Genelec Managing Director Siamäk Naghian.
