With entries now open and early-bird pricing closing this Friday, now is the time to enter The Urban Developer Awards for Industry Excellence, the premier awards program celebrating the best in property development across Australia and New Zealand.
From landmark projects to game-changing initiatives, the awards recognise excellence across every facet of the built environment. Whether you’re a developer, consultant, fund manager or innovator, here are six compelling reasons to enter:
Winners and finalists are profiled across The Urban Developer’s platform—the largest and most engaged community of property professionals in the country. You’ll also be celebrated in front of 1000-plus industry peers at the gala dinner on the Gold Coast. It’s not just an award—it’s national exposure.
Unlike some other programs, these awards are proudly independent. With no industry body or corporate sponsor at the wheel, our process is impartial, fair and entirely merit-based. That means recognition is earned—not bought.
Each submission is reviewed by a panel of more than 30 independent experts from across the industry. Our weighted scoring criteria are rigorous, ensuring every project, person and program is judged on its own merit—free of bias or influence.
This is a competitive, international program. Finalists are not just the best in their category—they’re among the best across the entire region. It’s a chance to benchmark your work against the very best.
Finalists receive exclusive access to the biggest night of the year in property—The Urban Developer Awards Gala Dinner on the Gold Coast. With more than 1000 senior decision-makers in the room, it’s a rare opportunity to connect, celebrate and elevate your brand.
Winners receive a bespoke trophy designed in collaboration with UAP (Urban Art Projects), an internationally acclaimed art and fabrication studio. It’s not just a trophy—it’s a collectible piece of art that tells a story of excellence.

Don’t just build great things—be recognised for them.
