Launch Awards 2026! With #SimplySpeak & more🏆

​Launch Awards 2026🏆 — Lights, Camera, Launch!

​The votes are in, the rankings have spoken, and now it's time to celebrate. Welcome to the very **first-ever Launch Awards** — the award show dedicated entirely to startup launch videos. Think Oscars night, but instead of Hollywood royalty, we're toasting the founders, teams, and storytellers who absolutely nailed their moment in the spotlight.

​Every category mirrors the Oscars lineup, and winners are determined by one thing: your video's ranking. The best launch videos from across the startup world, including companies fresh out of Y Combinator—are in the running. If your team put blood, sweat, and creative energy into a launch video this year, this is your night.

​We're bringing everyone together in San Francisco for a proper celebration. Expect good energy, great company, and a whole lot of well-deserved recognition for the teams who turned a product launch into a cinematic moment.

​Big thank you to our sponsor #SimplySpeak for making the inaugural Launch Awards possible. This night wouldn't happen without them.

​🎬✨Come dressed for the occasion, bring your team, and get ready to cheer (or accept a trophy). See you at the show.🎬✨
