Highlight your innovations at 2026 Middle East National Business, International Business, and Technology Excellence Awards

Celebrate your achievements along with the region’s leading companies and tech pioneers.

The Middle East has firmly established itself as a global powerhouse for business excellence and digital transformation. This rapid progress is driven by organisations that are consistently redefining industry standards. To honour these trailblazers, three of the region's most prestigious programmes are returning for 2026:

• Middle East National Business Awards - Dedicated to recognising the exceptional contributions of homegrown companies that are driving regional prosperity.
• Middle East International Business Awards - Designed to celebrate the success of foreign firms and international organisations that have established a significant footprint in the Middle East.
• Middle East Technology Excellence Awards - Aimed at honouring the most impactful and transformative tech initiatives, digital breakthroughs, and innovation-led projects in the region.

These awards serve as the ultimate platform to showcase your strategic vision, operational excellence, and transformative impact on the MENA economy.

A legacy of excellence

Last year, Ooredoo Fintech set a high benchmark, clinching both the Mobile - Financial Technology and Fintech - Financial Technology categories at the 2025 Middle East Technology Excellence Awards.

“This recognition is a testament to the dedication of our teams who are building a product that makes financial services more accessible and inclusive across the MENA region,” said Mirko Giacco, CEO of Ooredoo Fintech.
