Welcome to the African Property Awards
Africa’s premier developers, architects, interior designers and real estate agents gathered at The Burj Al Arab in Dubai on Thursday (November 17th) for the announcement of the winners of the hotly contested Africa Property Awards in association with Google and Bloomberg Television.
The big question now is how well will Africa compete internationally? The next stage of the competition is for top-scoring winners from each category of the Africa Property Awards literally to take on the world by competing against other high scoring companies from Asia Pacific, Arabia, the Americas and Europe. The ultimate World’s Best in each category will be unveiled when the final results are revealed at London’s Savoy Hotel on December 12th.
Regarded as the world’s most prestigious property competition, residential as well as commercial categories are covered. Judging is carried out through a meticulous process involving a panel of over 80 experts and covering every aspect of the property business. The judges are not only looking for the most impressive and innovative projects, they are also examining the sustainability and eco-friendliness of every property and development that comes under their scrutiny.
President of the International Property Awards, Stuart Shield, says, “Our seventh Africa Property Awards was one of the biggest highlights in the 18-year history of the International Property Awards. We decided to amalgamate the awards with the Arabian Property Awards which resolved the conundrum of how best to cover these two important and extensive regions. Having analysed the winning entries and projects, it also indicates renewed confidence in both African and Mid-Eastern property markets.”
