Get answers to some frequently asked questions

 

How can I nominate my company, colleague or transaction? Do I need to fill out a nomination form?

Yes, you need to fill out an easy-to-use nomination form and provide a short description and photo of the company, person or project. It only takes two minutes to fill out the form.

Can I submit nominations for more than one category?

Of course. You have a chance to submit multiple nominations, but you need to fill out the form separately for each category and each nomination.

Is there a cost for making a nomination?

No, of course not. It’s free of charge.

What happens after the nomination period ends on October 24th?

Besides the nominations we receive, we’ll also take into consideration market data, generously provided by iO Partners. Our team will then select the shortlist of nominees, which will be announced to the public in November.

When and how will the Award Ceremony take place?

The winners will be announced during the Award Ceremony at CEE Property Forum 2025 in Vienna on November 24th. The ceremony will start in the evening, right before our annual networking party.

How can I support the Award Ceremony?

We have a number of partnership opportunities available, including Award Ceremony sponsorships, Drink Bar sponsorships and many more. Companies can also sign up to become Award Category Partners. These partners will have the opportunity to join the host of the Award Ceremony to present the winners with the award in their selected category. Hurry up, though, as some of the most popular categories are already taken. You can learn more information by reaching out to our sales team.
