One of Only Two Manufacturers Worldwide to Receive Top Honors

Knightstown, IN — October 8, 2025 — NexGen Manufacturing, a leading U.S.-based contract manufacturer, has been awarded a Gold MarCom Award for its publication, “Why Work at NexGen.” This recognition places NexGen among an elite group of global marketing and communication professionals honored for excellence in creativity, design, and strategic messaging.

The MarCom Awards, administered by the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals (AMCP), are one of the largest and most respected creative competitions in the world. With over 6,500 entries from dozens of countries each year, MarCom recognizes outstanding achievement across a wide range of marketing and communications disciplines.

NexGen’s award-winning publication is a key component of the company’s recruitment strategy, designed to authentically communicate its culture, values, and opportunities to prospective employees. The piece highlights NexGen’s commitment to excellence, ownership, and community — values that have shaped its growth as a premier manufacturing employer in Indiana.

“We’re incredibly proud to be recognized on a global stage for how we communicate who we are,” said Tim Riethmiller, Chief Commercial Officer at NexGen Manufacturing. “This publication was born from a simple belief: great companies are built by great people. Our goal was to create something that resonates deeply with candidates and reflects the pride, purpose, and opportunity that come with being part of NexGen.”

“Our team culture is what sets NexGen apart,” added Mark Mastin, Human Resources Manager. “This award is a testament to how we live our values every day and how intentional we are in inviting the right people to join our mission.”

NexGen Manufacturing is one of only two manufacturers worldwide to receive a MarCom Gold Award this year — a distinction typically earned by marketing agencies and creative firms. This recognition is a testament to how deeply in tune NexGen is with its culture, its people, and the way it communicates its story, demonstrating a level of brand and talent strategy rarely seen in the manufacturing sector.
