The Ellies

Contest Rules and Guidelines:

• Nominations period is July 1-14, 2025. A company only needs to be nominated once; there is no need to nominate your company multiple times.
• Voting period is August 1-11, 2025. This is when you want as many real votes as possible from your clients, customers and industry peers. Anyone can vote once per IP address per 24 hours. However, you can vote in as many categories as you like. Please note that if your company shares an IP address for all employees that only one vote will count within the 24-hour time period. In this situation, we encourage people to also vote on their mobile phones, from their home or another location.
• The winners will be announced at a live Ellies Awards Ceremony at the NAEC Fall Convention. Following this ceremony, the winners’ list will be posted on this page, emailed to the industry, and highlighted in the December 2025 issue of ELEVATOR WORLD.
• There is one winner from each category and one runner up. Winners will receive a custom Ellies statuette to display in their office or at various industry events, as well as a custom digital logo to use on websites and other marketing materials to promote this accomplishment. Winners attending the NAEC Fall Convention will have the opportunity to receive their Ellies statuette in person at the Awards Ceremony. Awards will be mailed to those not in attendance.

Elevator World reserves the right to include or exclude any company for any reason. The goal of the Ellies Awards is for your clients, customers and industry peers to nominate and vote for the most deserving companies in a fair and honorable process.
