HOW TO ENTER

The IPE Real Estate Awards is the first event to honour investors and service providers alike for performance, transparency and innovation within the real estate sector.

We ask pension funds to put forward an activity in which they believe they have excelled in during the 16 months period from January 2007 to April 2008.  Entry for 2008 is now closed.

Pension funds can also submit this same entry and/or additional entries to the Themed Awards (If you submit the same entry for a Country/Regional Award and a Themed Award it means that your entry will be judged twice: 1. At national/regional level against all other entries from pension funds in your country/region and, 2. At pan-European level against all other entries for the Themed Award you have entered).

JUDGING

IPE organises consultants and pensions specialists to judge the investors awards

Once IPE has received all the entries they are forwarded to the judges. The judges score the application forms independently and submit these scores to IPE. We then aggregate the scores to arrive at the winners. The judges for 2008 are:

  • Edward Barker, Zanders
  • Jim Clayton, PREA
  • John Forbes, PriceWaterhouseCoopers
  • Fraser Hughes, EPRA
  • Stephen Kloess, CUREM
  • Robert Kochis, The Townsend Group
  • Nils Kok, University of Maastricht
  • Paul Mitchell, Paul Mitchell Real Estate Consultancy
  • Robin Priest, Deloitte
  • Dirk Söhnholz, Feri Institutional Advisors GmbH

The Awards for Best Investment Consultancy and Outstanding Industry Contribution are based on nominations. IPE Real Estate asks its readers to submit nominations. Nominations are now closed for 2008.
