The Jenkins Community Awards, judged by Kohsuke Kawaguchi, founder of the Jenkins project and CTO at CloudBees, in consultation with the Jenkins World 2019 Organizing Committee, will recognize individuals in four categories:
- Most Valuable Contributor will be presented to an individual who has contributed to the Jenkins project the most through new features, bug fixes or plugin development efforts.

This year, we have added an award for Jenkins X. With its support for Kubernetes and cloud native applications, Jenkins X is one of the fastest growing parts of Jenkins.”
The CloudBees Innovation Awards will be judged by Sacha Labourey, CEO and co-founder of CloudBees; Christopher Condo, principal analyst, application development and delivery, Forrester; and Alan Shimel, editor-in-chief of DevOps.com.
