Princeton Mercer Regional Chamber hosted its Legacy of Leadership Awards Dinner at the historic and elegant TPC Jasna Polana in Princeton, New Jersey. This annual tradition celebrates the accomplishments of Chamber members and shines a spotlight on leaders who make a lasting impact on the business community.

The evening featured four prestigious awards: Business Leader of the Year, Community Leader of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year, and Innovator of the Year. We are proud to announce that Princeton Hydro was selected as the recipient of the 2025 Innovator of the Year Award.

The Legacy Awards dinner also recognized an incredible lineup of honorees whose leadership and vision shape the Princeton Mercer business community and beyond:

  • Business Leader of the Year: Lisa Breza of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton
  • Community Leader of the Year: Studio Hillier of Princeton, NJ
  • Entrepreneur of the Year: Antonia James of K's Event Decorations & Rentals
  • Lifetime Achievement Award: Carol Beske of ACT Engineers for her decades-long career and community leadership

Princeton Hydro President Geoffrey M. Goll, PE accepted the award on behalf of the firm, accompanied by members of the firm's leadership: Mark Gallagher, Vice President; Megan Hunter Ruf, Chief Operating Officer; and Dana Patterson Grear, Director of Marketing and Communications.

During his acceptance remarks, Geoff reflected on what innovation truly means: the courage to challenge the status quo, the curiosity to explore new ideas, and the collaboration needed to turn those ideas into impact. He emphasized that innovation at Princeton Hydro goes beyond technology—it’s about reimagining how we interact with nature and creating solutions that balance ecological integrity with human needs. From combating toxic algal blooms and restoring urban waterways to pioneering green infrastructure and building climate resilience, innovation drives everything we do.

Geoff also highlighted the importance of community engagement, noting that Princeton Hydro’s commitment extends beyond project sites. Whether supporting environmental education, partnering with nonprofits, or working with underserved communities to ensure access to clean water and green spaces, the company believes innovation is most powerful when it’s inclusive and community-driven.
