Gwinnett’s brightest minds in manufacturing and supply chain will come together on Thursday, April 24, 2025, for a morning of celebration, inspiration, and innovation at the 14th annual Movers and Makers Awards, hosted by Partnership Gwinnett. This signature event will take place at The Westin Atlanta Gwinnett, located at 6450 Sugarloaf Parkway in Duluth, from 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM.

This year’s celebration shines a spotlight on the individuals and companies that are not only moving products—but moving the industry forward. With seven prestigious awards to be presented, including Manufacturer of the Year and Supply Chain Pioneer, the event is a powerful reminder that Gwinnett County continues to be a hub for world-class innovation and economic growth.

Attendees will hear from Ron Norris, a leading AI visionary and the retired Director of Innovation at Georgia-Pacific, who will deliver a compelling keynote on how artificial intelligence is being used to preserve institutional knowledge and enhance workforce resilience in real time. His expertise as CEO of Advanced Innovation Management brings fresh insight into the future of industry.

Adding to the conversation, Dr. Josh Thomason, Executive Director of TrekAI at Greater Atlanta Christian School, will showcase how AI tutoring tools—originally designed to help students thrive—are now being leveraged to fast-track business training and create smarter, more efficient teams in the manufacturing space.

With over 200 local business leaders, elected officials, and community partners expected to attend, this event is more than a celebration—it’s a powerful gathering of minds ready to shape the future of industry through technology, talent, and tenacity.

Whether you’re in manufacturing, supply chain, education, or economic development, the 2025 Movers and Makers Awards is your chance to connect, celebrate, and be inspired by the people and ideas pushing Gwinnett forward.
