S3 was a top winner at the 2026 New Jersey Ad Club Awards (the “Jersey Awards”), including taking home the coveted OUTFRONT Edge Award.
BOONTON, NJ – At the 58th Annual Jersey Awards, hosted by the New Jersey Ad Club on September 16, 2026 at The Grove in Cedar Grove, more than 200 agencies, brands, and marketers gathered under the theme “People First. AI Forward. Creativity Always.” The S3 Agency received 11 honors: six first-place awards; one Best of Category; three additional placements; and the OUTFRONT Edge Award, marking S3 as New Jersey’s Most Creative Agency.
The Edge Award from OUTFRONT Media goes to one company a year: the one whose entire body of work is judged the most creative and innovative. First presented in 2021, the Edge Award has been awarded to S3 more than to any other agency: in 2022, 2025, and 2026.
S3’s honors this year came for work across such varied industries as sustainable energy solutions, luxury performance cars, artificial general intelligence, mission-critical facilities software, and gourmet ice cream. Notable 2026 Jersey Award wins included:
- First Place, Creative Excellence – Reworld “Waste Better,” also named Best of Category
