International Artificial Intelligence Awards Program Names Its Winners 

LONDON and NEW YORK, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The A.I. Awards – operated by international awards body The Cloud Awards – has announced its winners, including many of the world's leading organizations in cloud artificial intelligence development and innovation.

First launched in 2024, the annual awards program recognizes the year's outstanding achievements and breakthroughs in AI solutions, platforms, and infrastructure. The program celebrates effective applications of AI across a range of sectors and industries, and business processes – including security, sales & marketing, and HR. Overall excellence in AI is also rewarded, as is innovation in specific corners of AI such as agentic, natural language processing, and AI assistants.

The 2026 winners comprise organizations headquartered across the globe, emerging startups, and established 'household name' technology giants.

CEO of The Cloud Awards, James Williams, said: "We're proud, and thrilled, to announce the winners of The 2026 A.I. Awards. AI continues to dominate the technology landscape, and that has been reflected in the story of this year's awards. This program has been the largest and most competitive A.I. Awards we have run since its launch in 2024, and of any awards program in our calendar for several years.

"This shows the size of the achievement of the winners announced today. All have done an outstanding job of demonstrating how their innovation in AI has delivered clear and measurable value to their customers, users or stakeholders.

"Backing up hype with results is the true test of the value of AI technology. These organizations are leading the way in this space, and we offer our congratulations to them in being able to celebrate their work in the form of awards recognition. We can't wait to see how they continue to develop and innovate."

The program will return to welcome new submissions for 2027, to continue recognizing excellence in AI development.
