The prestigious RLI APEX Awards Program, sponsored by The Land Report, is an annual production awards program designed to recognize the excellence and performance of our RLI members, the best in the business. Winners of our annual APEX Awards are recognized at a special awards ceremony at our annual National Land Conference. In 2023, awards for Regional Top Producers were added.

Our 2023 winners received their awards from RLI CEO Aubrie Kobernus, MBA, RCE, as well as The Land Report’s Editor Eric O’Keefe on Tuesday, March 12, 2024, during RLI’s 2024 National Land Conference in Louisville, KY, at a dinner that included special guest Chris Miller, Master Distiller Emeritus with Woodford Reserve.

The APEX Awards Program celebrated its seventh year by welcoming 200 applicants totaling a combined $6.1+ billion in qualifying transaction volume, 7,596 transaction sides, and over 966,000 acres sold. All land professionals recognized as part of the RLI APEX Awards Program are active members of RLI and had at least $5M of qualifying production volume in closed land sales in 2023.
