Granum, the company behind LMN and Greenius, and Weathermatic have jointly launched a new, multi-year strategic partnership.
Throughout 2026, the partnership will include co-developed education and workforce training initiatives and expanded contractor resources across LMN, Greenius and Weathermatic channels.
As part of the partnership, a new irrigation learning path has been released in Greenius, a seven-course training series designed to strengthen crew competency in specialty irrigation services. The new curriculum covers topics like sprinklers, sensors, piping, pumps, water hammers, hydraulics and more. The training is immediately available to Greenius customers and will be featured throughout SmartCon as part of the workforce excellence track.
LMN will also serve as the headline partner of SmartCon for the next three years, marking a significant expansion of Granum’s involvement in the industry event. Granum CEO Mark Sedgley will take the SmartCon main stage to speak on leadership, operational excellence and the evolving landscape of technology software in the green industry.
In addition, Greenius has been named the official workforce training partner of SmartCon. Greenius will play a central role in advancing contractor education at the event through new training resources and leadership content.
“Weathermatic and Granum share a belief that contractors succeed when people, process, and technology work together,” says Mark Sedgley, CEO of Granum. “This partnership is about uniting two organizations that care deeply about elevating the industry and giving contractors the tools they need to thrive.”
“Our mission has always been to empower landscape companies to operate with greater efficiency, sustainability, and professional excellence,” says Lex Mason, president of Weathermatic. “Partnering with Granum, LMN, and Greenius strengthens that mission and allows us to deliver even more value to the contractors we serve — especially those expanding or modernizing their workforce.”
