ENGAGE 2026 — Verint® honored its partners across North and Latin America during Engage 2026 in Las Vegas. The Engage Partner Awards winners were recognized for their role in helping organizations operationalize AI in the contact center.
For many organizations, AI in the contact center remains stuck in pilots and early deployments. The Engage Partner Award winners help customers move beyond experimentation, embedding AI into daily environments and delivering measurable improvements in handle time, agent capacity and self-service performance.
Each nominee was evaluated on the strength, scale and consistency of outcomes achieved across customer deployments.
The 2026 honorees:
Global Winners
- Global Partner of the Year – Five9
North American Winners
- North America Partner of the Year – Cisco

Latin American Winners

“Our partners are doing the work to put AI into production and prove its value on our customers’ P&Ls,” said John Bourne, senior vice president, global channels and alliances at Verint. “That’s how the gap between AI pilots and outcomes gets closed, which every award winner has accomplished.”
