A-Team Group today announced the winners of its annual Data Management Insight Awards – USA 2026, celebrating outstanding vendors, service providers, and consultancies delivering innovative data management solutions to North American capital markets.

Now in its sixth year, the awards recognise both established market leaders and groundbreaking newcomers across more than 40 categories, including Best Data Solution for Regulatory Compliance, Best Standards Solution for Data Management, and Best Buy-Side Data Management Platform.

The full list of winners can be found in the Data Management Insight Awards – USA 2026 Report, which you can download here.

Tremendous Honour

We were also delighted to present A-Team Group’s prestigious Editor’s Recognition Award for Data Management Industry Professional of the Year to Brian Buzzelli, Director, AI, Data and Digital Transformation at Meradia / F2 Strategy.

“It’s a tremendous honour,” Buzzelli told Data Management Insight on receiving his award.

“I’ve had the opportunity to work with exceptional organisations and people throughout my career, so while this is an individual recognition, I view it as reflecting the collective work of the teams, colleagues, clients and industry I’ve been fortunate enough to work alongside.”

Award winners were selected by A-Team Group’s independent and expert advisory board, which worked closely with its editorial team to select this year’s outstanding awardees.

Breaking New Ground

“Every year the quality of the work highlighted in these awards breaks new ground of excellence, and the participating companies should feel very proud of their achievements,” said A-Team Group President and Chief Content Officer Andrew Delaney.

“The level of competition also intensifies each year, meaning that simply being entered is an accomplishment in itself. We offer our sincerest congratulations to you all.”
