The Real Estate Personality of the Year, Poland
The winner will be selected through a three-stage process. From all submissions, the Organizer will nominate up to eight candidates. In the second stage, a jury will choose three finalists. During the gala, guests will vote electronically to determine the laureate. The award is dedicated to an individual who has held a senior management position in a commercial real estate company (or companies) for at least the past two years. The candidate should be highly respected in the business and commercial real estate community, demonstrate strong leadership, foster a positive work culture, and have achieved notable business results between August 2024 and August 2026. The laureate should clearly merit recognition for their professional achievements.
