Nominate groundbreaking innovations for the 2026 Next Level Awards.
CONEXPO-CON/AGG, the largest construction trade show in North America, is accepting nominations for its expanded Next Level Awards.
New for 2026, the Next Level Awards program is expanding into two new categories: Equipment and Technology.
The Next Level Awards program celebrates companies pushing the boundaries and delivering innovative products, services, and technologies that move the construction industry forward.
It first premiered during CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023, when Holcim’s ECOPact Low-Carbon Concrete was selected as the Contractors’ Choice award winner.
Nominations are now open for the 2026 awards and can be made through to December 1, 2025. A panel of industry experts and leaders will select 10 finalists in each category ahead of CONEXPO-CON/AGG.
During the show, to be held March 3-7, 2026, in Las Vegas, Nevada, attendees will be encouraged to visit all the finalists and vote for their favourite in each category. Winners will be announced on the “Ground Breakers” keynote stage the morning of Friday, March 6, 2026.
“The Next Level Awards shine a spotlight on the extraordinary innovations shaping the future of construction,” says Dana Wuesthoff, CONEXPO-CON/AGG show director.
“These awards not only honor the remarkable achievements of our industry, but also inspire companies to push boundaries, embrace new technology, and drive real progress.
“We can’t wait to see what new advancements will be on display and celebrate the visionaries moving our industry forward.”
Held every three years, CONEXPO-CON/AGG is the must-attend event for construction industry professionals. The show features the latest equipment, products, services and technologies for the construction industry, as well as industry-leading education.
The Next Level Awards provide an opportunity for companies to gain extra exposure and recognition for their innovative contributions to the industry. Finalists will be recognised in CONEXPO-CON/AGG press releases, social media, and other applicable channels, encouraging attendees to visit their booths and learn more about their cutting-edge products.
CONEXPO-CON/AGG is owned in partnership with National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA), National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) and the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) and managed by AEM.
