My Dashboard→ My Bench Profile→Barcelona · August 2026 · Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower — The inaugural TheNeutrals.ORG™ Awards Gala celebrates outstanding neutral professionals across all disciplines and sectors. Held on the evening of Day Two of the World Neutrals Summit 2026.
The TheNeutrals.ORG™ Awards Gala is held on the evening of Day Two of the World Neutrals Summit 2026 at the Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower. It is the first ceremony dedicated to recognising and honouring neutral professionals across all disciplines — evaluation, mediation, arbitration, chairing, and system design — at the international level. The awards are not industry favourites. They are peer-nominated and assessed against the TheNeutrals.ORG™ professional standards by an independent panel.
Every Summit delegate — Neutral Pass, Delegate Pass, and VIP Pass — has access to the Awards Gala on the evening of Day Two. VIP Pass holders receive premium table positioning. The gala includes a formal dinner, the awards ceremony, and informal networking.
Nominations for the 2026 awards are open to all certified Neutrals. Self-nomination is not accepted — all nominations must come from peers, clients, or institutional partners. The independent assessment panel is drawn from the TheNeutrals.ORG™ Global Council.
Register for the World Neutrals Summit 2026 to attend the inaugural TheNeutrals.ORG™ Awards Gala in Barcelona. Nominations now open for all award categories.
