AI JAR, an Australian AI startup, has won the Global Impact Excellence Award at the 2026 Women in Digital National Awards, held at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre on 6 November 2026. This recognition underscores the company's mission to democratize global trade by making export intelligence accessible to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Founded by Airing Wang, a veteran in international business and market development, AI JAR aims to break down barriers to global trade. The company's AI-powered export intelligence platform, TargetIQ™, Innovia™, CopyCraft™, and RetailPilot™, provides businesses with market research, product innovation insights, localised marketing strategies, and retail market intelligence across more than 170 international markets.
For decades, comprehensive international market research has been a domain reserved for multinational corporations with substantial research teams and significant budgets. However, AI JAR is changing this model. Its platform enables businesses to conduct research that traditionally required weeks or months in a matter of minutes, at a fraction of the conventional consulting costs. This makes global opportunities accessible to SMEs that previously lacked the resources to navigate foreign markets.
AI JAR's technology combines specialised AI agents with market intelligence and industry expertise, providing businesses with powerful export intelligence. The company has established strategic industry relationships, including a partnership with the Export Council of Australia, to support its ambition of making advanced export intelligence more accessible to Australian businesses.
The Global Impact Excellence Award, presented at the ninth annual Women in Digital Awards, highlights the growing role of female-founded Australian technology businesses in developing solutions with international relevance. AI JAR's recognition reflects the potential for Australian technology companies to address real-world international business challenges.
"And we're only getting started."
The Women in Digital Awards, founded in 2018, celebrate outstanding contributions to Australia's digital and technology industries, highlighting innovation, leadership, and the impact of women in shaping the digital economy. AI JAR's win as the Global Impact Excellence winner is a testament to the company's commitment to making international trade smarter, more affordable, and more accessible.
