Video Summary:

ULI began the Awards for Excellence program in 1979 to recognize truly superior development efforts in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. Winning projects represent the highest standards of achievement in the development industry—standards that ULI members deem worthy of attainment in their professional endeavors. From 2012 to 2019, the ULI Global Awards for Excellence honored development projects and programs from around the globe in a single competition. In 2021, projects and programs entered a regional Awards for Excellence program in the ULI Americas, Europe, or Asia Pacific regions. Winners from the regional programs become finalists in the global awards. Today the real estate and land use industry widely recognizes the ULI Global Awards for Excellence as one of its most prestigious awards programs.  

A jury of ULI members chooses finalists and winners. The 12 members of the 2021 ULI Americas Awards for Excellence jury are leaders who represent a broad geographic diversity and many areas of real estate and land use expertise, including finance, planning, development, public affairs, design, and professional services, among others. 

More information about the awards is online at uli.org/aae (Americas), and uli.org/gae (Global). All submissions to the Americas awards program are profiled online here and the 23 Americas finalists are profiled online here.
