The Eurasia Awards 2026 went down at the Al Baraha Ballroom on 9 February. Industry bigwigs, operators, affiliates and the tech brains behind it all got together at the Dubai Festival City location. It was a night that celebrated the achievements of the digital entertainment and emerging technology sectors, shining a light on the people and projects that really made an impact. Giving recognition to those who’ve been driving innovation and pushing the industry forward over the past year was high on the agenda. The whole evening was a pretty slick blend of formal awards, a top-notch dinner, a charity auction, and some good old-fashioned industry networking. And, as a bonus, the SiGMA Foundation got to take home a nice haul from the evening’s fundraising efforts, while the senior players in the room were busy making new contacts.

A reception which featured live music got the attendees socializing before the main events proper got underway. The guests then made their way into the ballroom where a string of award announcements were to fill the night. Many category winners were able to celebrate as the night came to a close. Various contenders, including AI products, marketing campaigns and esports entries from payments to affiliate technology were in the running for a win. The whole event showcased how incredibly varied the sector has become of late. And it was no surprise that this ceremony was a key component of the AIBC Eurasia programme in Dubai.
