The Big Project Middle East (BPME) editorial team has announced the companies, individuals and projects shortlisted for the 15th edition of the annual Big Project Middle East Awards (BPME Awards). The gala dinner event is scheduled to take place on 29 January at the Ritz Carlton JBR in Dubai.
Nominations closed in mid-December 2024, following which each nomination went through two rounds of scrutiny; the first was conducted by the BPME editorial team, with the remaining nominations then being presided over by a panel of six judges in early January 2025. The judging panel will be announced on the night of the Awards, the BPME team revealed.
In excess of 160 nominations were submitted across 31 categories by a diverse mix of organisations, including developers, operators, contractors, specialists and suppliers.
Individuals, companies and projects that made the shortlist, as well as those that scored the most first choice votes, will be celebrated at the gala dinner event on 29 January. The impartial elimination rounds saw the consolidation of some categories due to a lack of stand-out nominations; conversely, in categories with several strong nominations, a decision was made to expand the category. The full shortlist and list of winners will be revealed at the gala dinner.
“Following months of promotion and preparation, the BPME team and I are pleased to be able to reveal the shortlist for the forthcoming edition of the annual BPME Awards. The Awards are a Middle East institution and I for one can’t wait to reveal the full list of categories and shortlisted nominees, as well as the winners on the night of the awards on 29 January in Dubai,” said Jason Saundalkar, Head of Content at Big Project Middle East.
