The Diamond TV Personality of the Year Awards (POTYAs) is an annual, prestigious event hosted by Diamond TV. These awards celebrate outstanding personal and institutional achievements and highlight excellence through social media engagement while driving positive change in society.
The POTYAs process begins with public nominations submitted through a secure, cloud-based system. After nominations close, a panel, supported by an independent adjudication council, evaluates entries based on criteria such as nomination count, contributions during the year, and category relevance. Shortlisted nominees are announced, and public voting determines winners via the same system. Independent auditors and the council ensure accuracy and integrity throughout. Additionally, six technical categories—acting, philanthropy, entrepreneurship, lifetime achievement, and music video directing—are managed solely by the council, with nominees and winners selected without public voting.
Moreover, Diamond Media’s POTYAs are dedicated to recognizing individuals and organizations who have made lasting contributions in their fields. The awards also provide a platform to showcase those who inspire and create positive impact across various sectors.
