2026 Stevie® Awards: Entry Guide for Malaysian Businesses

The global business landscape is more competitive than ever. Whether you are a corporate giant or a fast-growing SME, standing out requires more than just local wins. Standing out takes global validation. And that’s where the Stevie® Awards come in.

But what exactly is the Stevie® Awards?

The Stevie® Awards was created in 2002 to honour and generate public recognition of the achievements and positive contributions of organisations as well as working professionals worldwide.  In a short span of time, the Stevie® Awards has become one of the world's most coveted prizes. Every year, over 10,000 entries are submitted from more than 70 countries, featuring major players like Apple, Ford, and IBM. You could be next!

The Stevie® Awards is not just for global brands, it is open for any team that is doing great work. Here’s a few reasons why you should enter: 

• Credibility across 60+ countries

• Recognition by a prestigious international platform

• Motivation and morale boost for your sales and service teams

Whether you are a corporate giant, homegrown SME, or a regional player, your achievements deserve a bigger stage.
