The Association of Digital Marketing Professionals (ADMARP) has opened nominations for the 2026 Digital Product Growth Awards, aimed at recognising individuals, brands, startups and teams driving innovation and measurable growth across Africa's digital ecosystem.
The awards, which will be presented at the ADMARP Digital Product Growth Summit 2026 on November 27 in Lagos, will recognise excellence across marketing, product development, growth, artificial intelligence and marketing technology.
Nominations are open across 11 categories, including Growth Marketer of the Year, Product-Led Growth Champion of the Year, AI and MarTech Innovation Award, Performance Marketer of the Year, Product of the Year and Brand of the Year.
Other categories include Agency/Team of the Year, Best Product Marketing Campaign, AI Startup of the Year, Outstanding ADMARP Member and Emerging Voice in Digital Growth, which will spotlight an emerging professional or under-30 talent making an impact in the digital growth space.
According to the organisers, the awards are designed to celebrate the people and organisations behind the growth of digital products across Africa, including product professionals, growth practitioners, marketers, creators, AI and MarTech innovators, startups and brands.
The nomination process is free, with individuals and organisations encouraged to nominate deserving professionals, teams or brands that have demonstrated measurable impact in their respective fields.
Nominations will close on October 10, 2026.
The awards ceremony will form part of the ADMARP Digital Product Growth Summit 2026, scheduled to hold at the 157 Gardens Events Centre, Lagos.
The summit will be held under the theme, “Great Marketing Doesn’t Start at the Campaign, it Starts at the Product,” reflecting the growing convergence between product development, marketing and sustainable business growth.
Among the categories, the Growth Marketer of the Year award will recognise professionals who have delivered measurable growth through a systematic approach, while the Product-Led Growth Champion category will celebrate founders, product managers and growth leaders who have embedded growth directly into their products.
