HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 26 January 2021 – Reed MIDEM announces the MIPIM Asia Awards 2020 and Startup Competition Hong Kong winners. The awards took place as part of the online MIPIM Asia Awards Forum.

 

MIPIM Asia Awards, the leading regional property awards, otherwise known as the “Oscars of the Asian real estate world,” announced the 2020 winners during the awards ceremony at the MIPIM Asia Awards Forum on 26 January 2021. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the awards event was 100% virtual, live-streamed for free, and open to all.

 

With a total of 33 property developments recognized and shortlisted for their excellence and innovation, Gold Award winners were selected from the 11 award categories, representing the most outstanding real estate projects among the Asia-Pacific region. 

 

“The arrival of the pandemic in 2020, presented many new obstacles to the awards team, the project team and the jury members,” said MIPIM Director Ronan Vaspart. “Despite these challenges, the response we received was overwhelming, demonstrating how the industry never ceases to progress, even during difficult times.”

 

Founded in 2007, the annual MIPIM Asia Awards honour the most outstanding and accomplished projects, completed or yet to be built, in Asia-Pacific. The competition allows companies the invaluable opportunity to promote their projects, value the work of their team, and their company’s work to the real estate community.

 

The jury panel, chaired this year by François Trausch, Global CEO & CIO of Allianz Real Estate GmbH, reviewed a total of 114 entries in November, which were whittled down to the final 33 winners, drawn from 8 countries, by the jury panel of 17 industry experts.
