Keeping Audi in the driver’s seat: Somo wins BIMA for Audi UK project
We scooped Best Use of Digital in Automotive award at the prestigious 2019 BIMA Awards! Find out more about this winning project.
Read moreWe’re excited to announce Somo won a Technical Innovation award at the recent DADI 2018 for the revolutionary Blackout project that reduces exposure to potential security breaches in the workplace and boosts student engagement in the education environment. We were also recognised as top 3 in the Automotive Website, App or Campaign category for our groundbreaking work with Audi that redefines how automotive brands promote their products online.
The winning Blackout solution empowers employers and educators to selectively prohibit the use of cameras, voice recorders and web browsers, and prevent access to unauthorised messaging and social media apps based on user location. The product showed an extremely high technical complexity, with many claiming it couldn’t be built. But Somo found a way. Through experimentation and innovation-led thinking, we developed a brand new technology that combines advanced engineering techniques to overcome challenges of platform compatibility, interoperability, data sensitivity and hyper-accurate location determination.
The DADIs (The Drum Awards for the Digital Industries) are global awards recognising digital excellence and celebrating the very best of the global digital industry for the past 12 years. Winning DADI is a fantastic achievement and we’re proud Somo once again has been recognised as the company bringing complex technical innovation to life and leading the digital change across a variety of sectors.
