Submissions for the 2022 PERE Global Awards closes tonight

Our call for submissions for the 17th edition of private real estate’s most anticipated awards is coming to a close at midnight Central Time tonight.

Then the process begins sorting through submissions and concluding our field work to determine the nominations for our biggest awards yet.

The 2022 PERE Global Awards have 72 categories this time around for institutional managers, investors and their advisers to contest.

In a notable difference to last year, we are introducing four categories dedicated to activity in data centers and other digital forms of physical real estate. This is an acknowledgement of exponentially growing activity from institutional investors and managers in the sector.

For the first time, firms can submit to be nominated in:

Data Center Firm of the Year: Global;
Data Center Firm of the Year: North America;
Data Center Firm of the Year: Europe;
Data Center Firm of the Year: Asia.

Following the introduction of ESG and Proptech Firm of the Year categories last year, the PERE Global Awards consistently aim to reflect the ever-changing conditions and trends of the private real estate capital markets.

These categories sit beside our longstanding categories including Firm, Investor, Capital Raise, Capital Advisory and those dedicated to asset classes and specific geographies.

Last year’s awards attracted approximately 20,000 votes across 71 categories, twice as  many as was collected in 2020. That is testament to the prestige and validity of private real estate’s only global awards where the winners are voted for by you, our trusted readers.

We look forward to determining the nominations for this year’s awards, a process that starts with our call for submissions.

To apply, access the official form here.
