Emapta, a global outsourcing and workforce solutions company specializing in offshore AI-ready dedicated staffing and workforce transformation advisory services, today announced it has been named a finalist in the Best Workplace Culture category of the 2026 HR Icons Awards.

Hosted by HR Tech and HR Executive, the HR Icons Awards recognize transformational HR initiatives at organizations with 500 or more employees and spotlight innovation, leadership and measurable impact across the HR profession. Emapta is one of four organizations, including American Express, selected as finalists for Best Workplace Culture.

The recognition reflects Emapta’s continued focus on building a workplace where employees feel connected, supported and empowered to grow. As the company has expanded to more than 13,000 team members globally, maintaining a strong and inclusive culture has remained fundamental to how Emapta operates and serves its clients.

The HR Icons recognition adds to Emapta’s growing list of workplace honors. Earlier this year, the company was named a Top 15 Asian Inspiring Workplaces for 2026 and was recognized for Most Innovative Culture in the 2026 WorkLife Awards, further highlighting its approach to creating an employee experience designed to support mutual long-term success.
