Widely regarded as the most prestigious and transparent awards in the industry, the Global Gaming Awards Americas celebrate excellence across the entire region, highlighting organizations that have demonstrated outstanding performance, innovation and impact in both established and emerging markets across the Americas.
Companies are invited to put themselves forward by submitting a nomination via the official Global Gaming Awards website, outlining their achievements across North and/or South America over the past 12–18 months. In an exciting update for 2026, the submission character limit has been increased to 1,500 characters, giving nominees greater opportunity to showcase their accomplishments in detail.
This year also introduces a brand-new category, Industry Influencer of the Year, recognizing individuals that are shaping the conversation and driving industry engagement.
