BUDAPEST, Hungary—YNOT Awards were handed out this week to 30 companies and individuals chosen by their peers as the “best of the best in the online adult entertainment industry.” Winners at the third annual event were announced during a ceremony dinner at Budapest’s historic Symbol restaurant, wine cellar and art gallery, as part of the European Summit festivities.
Jay Kopita, VP of Houston-based YNOT Group LLC, who co-hosted the ceremony with Jenn Gonzalez, director of affiliates for Love Revenue, commented, “Because the YNOT Awards, uniquely, are selected by industry-wide voting instead of by a committee, repeat winners deserve special congratulations. Companies and individuals who maintain solid reputations, along with the respect and admiration of their peers, are doing more than a few things right.”
