Nominations for the 38th International Emmy Awards were announced on October 4, 2010, by the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (IATAS) at a Press Conference at Mipcom in Cannes. There are 39 nominees in 10 categories. The nominees were selected over six months by a composite panel of 700 judges representing 50 countries.
