The Giants of Broadcasting & Electronic Arts is LABF'S annual celebration of the distinguished individuals who have—for the past century—been the creators, innovators, journalists, leaders, performers, and producers that have brought the electronic arts to the prominence they occupy in the United States and the world today, and who have set the stage for the future.
LABF is a 501(c)(3) charity, which plays a vital role in growing, preserving, and providing access to archives that represent the most influential cultural force in the world. A portion of the proceeds will also support the IRTS Foundation's student training programs and diversity initiatives that have led to thousands of successful careers throughout our industry.
