illi News/10305171

CHICAGO - illiNews -- Bennett Awards is proud to have partnered with ORTHOWORLD® to design and produce striking custom trophies for the inaugural OMTEC Awards, held during the OMTEC 2025 conference at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Chicago from June 17-19.

The ORTHOWORLD team approached Bennett Awards earlier this year with a clear vision: to create an award that reflected their brand identity and captured the modern spirit of orthopedic innovation. They provided an impressive range of AI-generated design renderings—an approach that enabled thorough exploration of potential concepts. Though many initial renderings leaned toward a traditional award aesthetic, a collaborative design process ultimately led both teams to pursue a minimalist, sleek direction aligned with OMTEC's contemporary tone.

The finished awards stand 8 inches tall and are crafted from machined aluminum with a blue powder-coated finish that perfectly matches OMTEC's brand palette. The trophy's centerpiece features a stylized "O" inspired by the event's logo, while a black powder-coated aluminum base includes the full logo printed prominently on the front.
