EuropaProperty has announced the finalists for the 16th Annual CEE Investment Awards, to be held on October 29, 2026, at the Presidential Hotel in Warsaw.
Recognised as one of the region’s leading real estate investment events, the CEE Investment Awards celebrate the companies, projects and individuals shaping the investment landscape across Central and Eastern Europe. More than 400 leading investors, developers, policymakers and industry representatives are expected to attend this year’s event, highlighting its importance as a meeting point for the region’s real estate community.
Covering markets including Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Romania, the Baltics and Austria, the awards recognise achievements across investment, sustainability, innovation and transformative development. The 2026 nominees reflect the CEE real estate market’s continued evolution, with a strong focus on investment performance, ESG, innovation and long-term value creation.
The CEE Investment Awards recognise exceptional contributions across a broad range of categories, celebrating achievements in investment, development, design, sustainability, community impact and urban innovation. By bringing together established market leaders, ambitious companies and emerging talent, the awards provide a platform for recognition, collaboration and new business opportunities.
To ensure transparency and integrity throughout the process, winners are selected exclusively on merit, with EY serving as the event’s independent audit partner.
Alongside the awards ceremony, the gala evening will offer extensive networking opportunities, bringing together senior decision-makers and leading professionals from across the CEE real estate sector. The event provides an opportunity to build new connections, explore partnerships and showcase projects and achievements to an influential international audience.
