The Indiana Manufacturers Association will host the Indiana Manufacturers Hall of Fame Luncheon on Wednesday, Oct. 18, where Grote Industries, headquartered in Madison, Indiana, will receive the Innovation Excellence Award.
The prestigious event is held annually to celebrate and recognize positive achievements made by the Indiana manufacturing community and to honor the commitment toward innovative thinking, community involvement and leadership.
Along with Grote’s Innovation Excellence Award, some of the other awards given out are the Community Impact Award; the Emerging Leader Award; and the Lifetime Achievement Award.
“I’m proud of our team at Grote for the work they do every day to innovate and grow. We are honored to be recognized among such an esteemed group of Indiana manufacturers,” said John Grote, COO of Grote Industries. “As a company founded in 1901, the same year as the IMA, we are well-positioned for our future as a vital, family-owned company based in Indiana.”
This year’s keynote speaker is Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb.
