Hermanson Company is honored to be recognized at the 2026 SMPS Seattle Reign Awards, receiving awards in both the Marketing Collateral and Event categories.

Hosted by the Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS) Seattle Chapter, the Reign Awards recognize excellence in marketing, communications, and business development across the A/E/C industry. The event brings together local professionals to reflect on the past year’s work and celebrate the ideas, collaboration, and effort behind it.

This year, Hermanson was recognized for two submissions:

Marketing Collateral
Building the Beehive – UW Welcome Center Proposal
This pursuit centered on translating the University of Washington’s vision for its Welcome Center into a clear and cohesive story. Inspired by the idea of the building as a “beehive for community activity,” the proposal emphasized collaboration, shared responsibility, and the strength of an integrated project team.

Event
Innovate & Elevate: A Deep Dive Into the Data Center Ecosystem
This event brought together industry partners and subject matter experts to explore trends, challenges, and opportunities within the data center space. Designed as a focused, conversation-driven experience, the event created an opportunity to share insights and build meaningful connections across the industry.

Alongside these project recognitions, Jonathan Manfredonia, Hermanson’s Communications Manager, was honored with the SMPS Seattle President’s Award for Marketing

These efforts reflect a shared commitment to collaboration and continuous improvement. Through initiatives like this, we aim to keep the conversation going, share perspectives, and strengthen connections across the industry.
