Kat Bautista, COO and Founder of NYMA Management, has been appointed as a judge for the 13th Annual Asia‑Pacific Stevie Awards, the region’s premier business honors. Bautista will join a distinguished panel evaluating entries across marketing, communications, innovation, and leadership categories, bringing her expertise to a wide range of industry submissions.

Bautista’s appointment reflects her proven track record in brand transformation and measurable campaign impact across Asia‑Pacific markets. A two-time Stevie Award winner herself, she was recognized in 2025 as Best Female Entrepreneur at the International Business Awards (IBA) in Lisbon, Portugal, and received a Bronze Stevie® Award for Most Innovative Leader of the Year at the 2024 Asia‑Pacific Stevie® Awards.
Adding to her adjudication credentials, Bautista also served as a judge for the 2026 Webby Awards, the world’s leading honors for digital excellence. Her experience provides the Stevie jury with deep insight into digital creativity, strategic communication, and user experience.

“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 ceremony will be held on April 17, 2026, at The Venetian Hotel, Macau, celebrating excellence and innovation across the Asia‑Pacific region.
