Gcore shortlisted for Streaming Media European Readers’ Choice Awards



Gcore CDN and Streaming Platform have been shortlisted for the Streaming Media European Readers’ Choice Awards 2021, an award for the best service where the winners are determined by users.

The final voting for the best provider is already underway and will continue until August 20, 2021. If you like our products, vote for Gcore.

What is the Streaming Media European Readers’ Choice Awards?

The award is organized by the European edition of the Streaming Media’s magazine, one of the largest publishing holdings in the world on the topic of streaming.

The Streaming Media European Readers’ Choice Awards is held every year. Its distinctive feature is that it’s the only award in the streaming industry where the winners are determined by the users themselves.

At the first stage, the readers of Streaming Media indicate the services that they consider the best in the industry. Only companies with headquarters in Europe can be nominated for the award.

From these nominations, a shortlist is formed, and then the final vote is held, where users choose the best companies on the market in each category.

This year, the award has 14 categories. Our products are nominated in two of them:

  • CDN: Content Delivery and Distribution
  • Streaming Platform: Live Streaming Platform/Service
