108 finalists in 16 categories from around Australia are in the running for the 2013 Property Council of Australia / Rider Levett Bucknall Innovation and Excellence Awards.
Ken Morrison chief operating officer of the property council of Australia said:
“All finalists are in the running for the property industry’s coveted Gold Logie - the Australian development of the year award.”
Six individuals are also vying for the Future Leader of the Year award.
Managing director of Rider Levett Bucknall, Michael Kerr, says the Innovation and Excellence Awards provide an opportunity for the Australian property industry to recognise world-class developments and professionals across the country, and reward both established leaders and up-and-coming talent.
“We have proudly partnered with the Property Council of Australia to present this outstanding awards program since its inception in 1982, and look forward to seeing the best developments recognised again in 2013,” said Kerr.
National award winners will be announced at the 2013 Awards Gala Dinner, to be held in Sydney on Saturday, 18 May.
