Manila — Kat Bautista, COO and Founder of NYMA Management, has been appointed a judge for the 13th Annual Asia‑Pacific Stevie Awards. Bautista will join a panel evaluating entries across marketing, communications, innovation, and leadership categories for the region’s premier business awards.
Her selection reflects a proven track record in brand transformation and measurable campaign results across Asia‑Pacific markets. A two‑time Stevie winner, she was honored in 2025 as Best Female Entrepreneur at the International Business Awards (IBA) in Lisbon, Portugal, and was named a Bronze Stevie® Winner for Most Innovative Leader of the Year at the 2024 Asia‑Pacific Stevie® Awards.
Bautista also served as a judge for the 2026 Webby Awards — widely regarded as the leading international honors for excellence on the internet — bringing additional adjudication experience and a broad perspective on digital creativity, user experience, and strategic communication to the Stevie jury.

“I’m honored to join the Asia‑Pacific Stevie Awards jury,” Bautista said. “Judging is a responsibility I take seriously — it’s about recognizing craft and strategy that move industries, uplift communities, and deliver measurable results. I look forward to celebrating work that pairs creative ambition with clear business impact.”
The Awards celebration ceremony is set to take place on April 17, 2026 — The Venetian Hotel, Macau
