BOXLIGHT DeskBoard Named As Finalist in 2015 American Business Awards
13th annual Stevie® Awards will be presented September 11 in San Francisco
Belfair, WA (May 11, 2015) BOXLIGHT, a global leader in developing and manufacturing award winning projectors, interactive flat panels, and classroom solutions, was named a Finalist in the 2015 American Business Awards for Best New Product of the Year in Education/Instructional Solutions for their ground-breaking interactive DeskBoard solution.
BOXLIGHT’s DeskBoard is a multipurpose interactive classroom solution that can be used as an interactive desk surface or raised and tilted to use as an interactive touch screen. The DeskBoard features multi-finger touch – enabling up to ten individual and simultaneous finger or pen interaction points. A remote control operates the motorized height and tilt adjustments and the mobile cart allows for complete mobility of the DeskBoard. It is a complete mobile solution that can be wheeled from class to class and the height and tilt adjustments mean it can accommodate a wide range of students and activities.
“BOXLIGHT has always focused on the needs of our customers and has strived to innovate based on those needs. This is a prime example of a ground-breaking product that BOXLIGHT developed for our partners and customers,” says Sunshine Nance, Director Global Marketing & Communications. “When educators see the DeskBoard for the first time, it is a ‘jaw-dropper, gotta-have-it’ reaction. We are thrilled about being a finalist for the Best New Product of the Year for the American Business Awards – it is an absolute honor,” Nance concludes.
The American Business Awards are considered the nation’s preeminent business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.

More than 3,300 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, finalists were chosen by scores of business professionals nationwide during first-round judging in April and May. Members of several specialized judging committees will determine Stevie Award placements from among the Finalists during final judging, to take place later this month.
