Truly was an incredible evening. The vibe in the room was electric.

Lauren Jenkins, Executive Director shares, "What happened last night was bigger than an awards show. The 2026 Ignite Awards brought together some of the most driven, innovative, resilient, and impactful women in Western New York. Women building businesses, creating opportunities, strengthening communities, and redefining what leadership looks like.
To every nominee, winner, sponsor, partner, supporter, and entrepreneur who filled the room with ambition and belief in one another: Thank You.
This is what happens when women come together and lift each other up.

And this is only the beginning. ✨
More moments from an unforgettable night and the incredible women behind them - COMING SOON!!"
