Recognition built on real results
The GelatoConnect Awards were created to honour the producers who are not waiting for the industry to change. They are the ones changing it.
Winners are selected from across the global GelatoConnect network, based on demonstrated results: operational improvements, growth achieved, partnerships built, and innovations deployed.
The 2026 ceremony took place at the GelatoConnect Summit in Lisbon, in front of over 200 producers from across Europe, the US, and Australia.
