“Given the success of the first annual CAP Awards, the glamour-clad occasion’s second outing is very highly anticipated,” stated Alex Pratt, an organizer for the event. “The fact that it’s logistically bigger, better and even more competitive than last year is only increasing excitement within the industry.”
