An independent Jury of leading real estate professionals carried out the process of deciding between the nominations for the award categories. The members of the Jury are all experienced real estate professionals and are from every sector of the commercial real estate and retail industries.
The semi-finalists will have their entries carefully reviewed by the Jury, who vote to decide on the winners the night before the gala at a jury dinner held at the Presidential Hotel. The Event Auditor, EY, audits the voting process.
Countries eligible to enter the awards include Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Ukraine, Austria, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.
The flagship retail event for the region
The CEE Retail Awards is dedicated to a retail networking environment and delivers a professional platform for deal-making, relationship building and one-on-one or group discussions on the evolving retail investment and development opportunities that are presenting themselves to the market.
The event opens with the CEE Retail & CEO Networking Forum, a series of discussion panels covering all hot topics and relevant issues for the dynamically evolving retail sector. The forum provides an occasion to hear from some of the sector’s leading thought leaders as well as opportunities to discuss and explore the industry’s most important topics.
The event consists of forums, networking, a retailer platform, and an awards gala, all in one active marketplace, as well as providing an excellent opportunity to make new contacts and renew existing business relationships on a professional networking platform.
