Alea’s Elisabet Vila wins B2B Excellence Award at the Women in Gaming Diversity Awards 2026

Elisabet Vila, serving as PR and communications manager at Alea, has been recognized with the B2B Excellence Award at the Women in Gaming Diversity Awards 2026. The accolade reflects her contributions to elevating the company's brand visibility and refining its communications strategy during a period of expansion.

The Women in Gaming Diversity Awards represent a significant platform within the iGaming sector for celebrating professional achievement and advancing gender representation across the industry. Recognition in the B2B Excellence category underscores the strategic importance of communications and brand management in a competitive, regulated marketplace where operator reputation and stakeholder relationships are paramount.

Vila's award comes at a time when iGaming operators increasingly recognize communications as a core business function. Effective PR and brand strategy help operators navigate regulatory scrutiny, build trust with partners and players, and differentiate themselves in crowded markets. The recognition of her work suggests Alea has invested meaningfully in these capabilities as part of its growth trajectory.

For the broader industry, such awards highlight the value placed on professional excellence in support functions beyond product and technology. As operators scale across multiple jurisdictions and face mounting compliance demands, the role of communications in managing stakeholder expectations and corporate positioning has become more critical. Alea's investment in this area, as evidenced by Vila's recognition, reflects a maturation in how gaming operators structure their organizations to support sustainable growth and regulatory compliance.
