Congratulations to the CEAs Winners!

Jennifer Polanz

We were thrilled to be able to honor a grower, innovative supplier and an industry trailblazer at this year’s CEAs—Cultivating Excellence Awards, at the Gala Luncheon at Indoor Ag-Con in Las Vegas.

In our second year hosting the awards program in conjunction with Indoor Ag-Con, we highlighted finalists in the categories of Product Innovation and Operational Excellence, and introduced the new Trailblazer Award to recognize someone in the industry who has made an impact through advocacy and education. We could not have done it without the support of our program sponsor Premier Tech, and we so appreciate CEA Commercial Director Nicolas Roy’s help in handing out our glass trophies.

And the winners are:

Product Innovation: Jiffy Gel from Jiffy Group

Operational Excellence: BrightFarms

Trailblazer Award: Dr. Gene Giacomelli

A very special thank you to our sponsor, Premier Tech!

Stay tuned for more details on next year’s event. In the meantime, block off your calendar for March 24-25, 2027 to head back to the Westgate in Las Vegas for Indoor Ag-Con.
