Business Insider’s YouTube channel has won a Webby Winner and People’s Voice Winner in the category of Business Video & Film at the 2025 Webby Awards. The Business Video & Film category acknowledges original digital or streaming series, or video channels devoted to the business world.
The Webby Awards were established in 1996 and recognize the best of the internet. This year, 13,000 pieces were submitted from over 70 countries, and a win — either for the Webby Winner or People’s Voice Winner — is only achieved by the top 4% of all entered work.
Business Insider’s YouTube channel, honored with both The Webby Award and The Webby People’s Voice Award, was selected by the executive judges of The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences and voted for by the public.
“This is the result of the hard work of the more than 80 journalists who have produced some of the best documentaries on YouTube over the past years,” said Executive Producer Barbara Corbellini Duarte. “We’re so proud to have built such a strong video team at Business Insider, and it’s an honor to be recognized by our audience and the Webby’s Judging Academy. The recognition couldn’t come at a better time, as we approach 10 million subscribers.”
The video team, led by Erica Berenstein, has earned numerous awards in recent years, including a National Magazine Award, multiple 2024 Digiday Video and TV Awards, Edward R. Murrow Awards, and New York Emmys.
These accolades come as millions of people continue to engage with Business Insider’s journalism, which covers everything from why Lego is so expensive and how army jungle soldiers are training for a possible war with China to how rich nations dump old cruise ships and oil tankers in developing countries.
