The Urban Developer Awards Honour Best of 2024

The cream of the property sector gathered on the Gold Coast in July to celebrate standout property industry performers from across Australasia at the 2024 The Urban Developer Awards for Industry Excellence.

The winners were announced at a gala dinner at The Star on the Gold Coast on July 31.

The seventh annual awards, in association with Trilogy Funds, boasted a record 167 finalists across 23 categories from Australia and New Zealand.

Hosted by actor, author and comedian Matt Okine, more than 640 of the industry’s movers and shakers joined The Urban Developer to celebrate their achievements

The Urban Developer co-founder and chief executive Adam Di Marco said it had been an excruciatingly difficult task for the judging panel thanks to the calibre of finalists.

“Competition across all 23 categories was intense,” he said.

“The best and brightest projects in Australia’s built environment have again come to the fore in a true indication of the high standard of strong, sustainability-led design and projects, and the people behind them, in the region.”
