Effective April 11, 2026, the previous full English name for The Global Chinese Achievers Award (formerly Huaren Bang · Hua Award), The Most Achieved Chinese Award (MACA), is officially renamed The Global Chinese Achievers Award (GCA Award).
This English‑language rebranding constitutes a global strategic upgrade for the award marking its fifteen‑year founding history.
The shift from MACA to GCA Award means far more than a superficial name replacement; it delivers focus and elevation to the brand’s core connotation. As the only ethnic‑Chinese‑focused international award that holds touring ceremonies worldwide, and the exclusive human‑culture brand which has staged its grand ceremony at United Nations Headquarters, it will engage the world and build international connections with a brand‑new image.
Global: shapes the brand with a world‑oriented vision for greater international stature.
Achievers: precisely singles out individuals who have made remarkable contributions across all fields, affirming ethnic Chinese as vital participants and drivers of global civilizational advancement.
The 2026 GCA Award embarks on a fresh new chapter with its renewed identity!
For the first time ever, two flagship annual galas will be presented.
The 15th GCA Award Global Tour Awards Ceremony opened on June 20, 2026 in brilliant sunshine at Seoul National University, the world‑famous prestigious university in South Korea.
The 16th GCA Award Global Tour Awards Ceremony will be held in Malaysia toward the end of 2026 under magnificent seasonal vistas. Going forward, Southeast Asia will serve as the core hub to continuously expand the global reach of GCA Award.
GCA Award is governed by an international jury composed of senior international figures from China, the United States, Australia and Hong Kong, China. Guided by the criteria of Integrity, Achievement, Contribution and Social Responsibility, the jury will keep selecting outstanding ethnic‑Chinese achievers across the globe, uphold the image of the Chinese nation, and spread Chinese humanistic spirit worldwide.
