Nominations and voting are now underway for this year's iGB Affiliate Awards, again set to close iGB L!VE in London.
The 2026 edition on the night of 2 July will take place at Tobacco Dock following its four-year residency at the Troxy, with 22 Awards again recognising the affiliates, programmes, networks, suppliers and individuals that drive the sector forward.
The sector can now nominate the people, companies and innovations they think moved the needle in 2025 by visiting the 2026 iGBA Awards page. There they can access our Entries Portal and find out all they need to know about entering, deadlines and much more.
The big night on 2 July promises another spectacular celebration to close iGB L!VE following last year’s Britpop extravaganza, this time paying tribute to another quintessentially British icon famous around the world in the form of James Bond.
The awards to be handed out on 2 July include two categories, Best New Programme for the most disruptive startup launched post-2023, and SEO Superstar for the in-house, agency or freelance expert who most successfully elevated affiliate visibility last year.
The coveted Best Employer accolade, so hard-fought for among the sector’s leading affiliates since 2022, now invites submissions on behalf of all businesses active in the sector, including affiliate programmes.
Best Affiliate Manager also becomes a people’s choice vote on the judges’ highest scoring entries from round 1.
The Awards Entries Portal upgraded for 2026 provides personalised management of all nominations in one place, with submitters able to review, edit and update multiple entries ahead of submission and track their status and progress.
