Powering Partnership Success: CJ Recognized at the 2025 USPAs

At CJ, we believe real progress doesn’t just happen — it’s built. Thoughtfully, intentionally, and together.

At the 2025 US Partnership Awards, that work was recognized across multiple categories, reflecting the depth of innovation, leadership, and collaboration that defines our teams.

Hosted by industry thought leader Hello Partner on the evening of April 24, 2025, in Miami, Florida, this year's USPAs recognized the individuals, companies, and technologies that are driving exceptional outcomes in affiliate, brand, and influencer partnerships.

💛 Honoring Sommer

Sommer Urias didn’t just grow accounts. She grew people.
Clients, colleagues, teams — she shaped the way we think, lead, and build.

As Amalia Thomas said:
"Her influence goes beyond results. It’s in the culture, the mentoring, and the way we now define success at CJ."

This recognition belongs to her — and to everyone who’s ever learned through her example.

🚀 Moving Forward, Together
