Byrne Group has secured 9 wins at the 2026 Stevie® Awards MENA (3 Gold, 4 Silver, 2 Bronze), marking one of the strongest performances by any company in the region this year. The achievement underscores the company’s “Innovation Everywhere” philosophy—integrating AI, modernised management practices, and latest technologies within its formidable 30-year industry legacy, reinforcing its market-leading position following the strategic acquisition by GFH Financial Group.

 

Byrne Group was recognised alongside industry heavyweights including Saudi Aramco, ADNOC Drilling, NMDC Energy, Samsung Electronics, and DHL Express — reflecting the high calibre of companies represented at this level.

 

The nominations were selected as Stevie® Award winners by the ratings of 118 professionals worldwide on eight juries.
