The Edison Awards
Each year, the Edison Awards are celebrated in Fort Myers, Florida, Thomas Edison’s winter home, and a bustling hub of innovation and business growth. From travel and accommodations to flight tips and local highlights, we’ve gathered everything you need to enjoy the vibrant energy of Fort Myers and make the most of your stay.
With four designated historic districts and nearly 20 designated historic landmarks, Fort Myers has a rich past. Revitalization of the historic downtown district has lead to the development of one of the most exciting areas in the US. Situated on the Caloosahatchee River, the area has no shortages of amenities for residents or attractions for tourists.
Covering more than 800 square miles, Lee County has more than a dozen diverse cities and communities filled with endless things to do. The county includes six main municipalities – Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Estero, Fort Myers, Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel. Enjoy miles of white-sand beaches at the the Gulf of Mexico, kayaking around the barrier islands or up nearby rivers. Venture inland to visit numerous historic sites or a stroll on a wetland boardwalk.
For four decades, the Edison Awards have recognized innovative products, services, and technologies that create meaningful value and impact. Explore the categories, find the right fit, and enter your new innovation for recognition.
