Rolling with the Times

 For nearly two decades, the Global Carrier Awards (GCAs) have been the pinnacle of honouring innovation in global connectivity. But as our industry evolves, so do we.

In 2024 we introduced the reimagined Global Connectivity Awards, celebrating the diverse tapestry of businesses shaping today's global networks. From carriers to data centres, cloud service providers to satellite operators, and beyond – we're honouring them all.

We also launched our revamped Global & Regional category, now known as 'Best Connectivity Provider', opening doors for a broader range of contenders.

We're also proud to announce the Brynn Fowler Agent of Change Award in partnership with the Women’s Tech Forum, recognizing those who champion diversity and inclusion.
