Finalists announced for Constructing Excellence Yorkshire & Humber Awards 2018
Organised by the Constructing Excellence Yorkshire and Humber, part of the School of Built Environment and Engineering at Leeds Beckett University, the awards recognise and reward the teams, projects and organisations driving up standards, improving the image of construction and delivering infrastructure fit for the future.
Accolades will be awarded across 13 different categories; each representing the core themes of the Constructing Excellence change agenda. These include people development, digital construction, and offsite construction. The winners will be revealed at a gala presentation evening at the Queen’s Hotel in Leeds on Thursday 12 July.
As with previous years, the winners of each category will then go on to represent Yorkshire and Humber at the National Constructing Excellence Awards in the autumn, exposing them to a wider network of sector professionals. This year’s shortlist can be viewed here.
Professor Akintola Akintoye, Dean of the School of Built Environment and Engineering said: “Year-on-year our awards continue to showcase the contribution the built environment makes to our region’s prosperity, as well as highlighting the depth of local construction talent available.
“Many of our former students are involved in delivering these projects and we are proud to have played a part in developing the stars of the future. We wish all the finalists the best of luck!”
