Galaxy Entertainment Group (GEG) has secured three major human resources awards in 2026, highlighting the company’s sustained investment in talent development and integrated resort leadership.
The group’s Training & Development department was named Team of the Year – Hospitality & Leisure at the Hong Kong Business Management Excellence Awards, making GEG the only winner in the category from Macao this year.
This recognition follows two awards at the 5th National Human Resources Innovation Competition, where GEG received accolades for Best Talent Development Brand – Leading Brand and Best Innovative HR Practice – Leading Brand for the “Experience Macao with GEG – Nurturing Talents through Cultural and Tourism Excellence” case study.
The programme, launched with the Macao University of Tourism, blends academic expertise and corporate practice to deepen team members’ understanding of community tourism and cultural heritage.
