MIPIM Asia Awards – APAC�s most extraordinary real estate projects revealed

HONG KONG, CHINA -�Media OutReach - 4 October
2018 – The Asia-Pacific’s most
ambitious, innovative and revelatory real estate projects have been chosen as winners
of the MIPIM Asia Awards 2018 — the
leading regional property awards show otherwise known as the “Oscars of the
Asian real estate world”.

 

A total of 30 trailblazing property developments
have been recognised with the influential industry honour, revealed ahead of MIPIM Asia, the continent’s leading
property summit, coming to Hong Kong November 27-28.

 

The winning entrants have been singled out in one
of ten different trophy categories, with each category’s three winners now
competing for Gold, Silver and Bronze honours. Following a public vote, the
final ranked victors will be announced at the MIPIM Asia Awards Gala Dinner — a glitzy event often compared to
the Academy Awards — to be hosted at the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong on the
conference’s closing night.

 

“Winning a MIPIM Asia Award has long been
established as one of the most prestigious prizes for real estate projects
across the APAC region,” said MIPIM Director Ronan Vaspart.

 

“We celebrate the developers, architects, government
authorities and other property visionaries who push the boundaries, break the
rules, and make unimaginable possibilities the solid realities of our skylines,”
he added.

 

Founded in 2007, the annual MIPIM Asia Awards
celebrate the most technically impressive, inventive and publically-enriching
property developments from across the APAC region, considering both finished
developments and un-built projects in the planning stage.

 

A record total of 122 entries were put forward for
the MIPIM Asia Awards 2018, which were
whittled down to the final 30 winners, drawn from seven different countries and
territories, by the esteemed judging panel of 19 industry experts. Chairing the
jury this year was François Trausch, an industry titan who is Chairman of the
Management Board, Executive Committee and CEO of Allianz Real Estate.

 

“The quality of submissions, already high in the
past, gets better every year,” said François Trausch. “This is especially true of
entries from China where we’ve had really outstanding projects in all
categories. In addition, this year we had some very creative and strong
submissions from Japan — more than in previous years — and we continue to have
good and creative entries from South Korea.

 

“Finally, while many of the projects are very often
at the conceptual planning stage, we see that a lot of these megaprojects get
built and are now operational, and often these plans become very successful
projects,” concluded François Trausch.

 

The final Gold, Silver and Bronze winners will be
decided by a public vote drawn from the 900+ delegates expected to attend MIPIM
Asia, with the results to be unveiled at the closing night Awards Gala Dinner
ceremony on November 28. See below for a full list of winners.

 

A spin-off of the world-renowned MIPIM property summit
hosted in Cannes every March, MIPIM Asia has established itself as the leading
industry conference and networking summit for top-level professionals across
the real estate industry in the APAC region.
