CPE Announces 2022 Influence Awards Winners

Commercial Property Executive hosted its annual Influence Awards, rebranded from the Distinguished Achievement Awards, on Jan. 31. The online ceremony celebrated the year’s most notable properties and transactions throughout commercial real estate. The event began with a discussion among the diverse panel of industry experts who judged the award submissions. The judges—who awarded Gold, Silver and Bronze accolades to the top developments, investments, business strategies and people in 11 different categories—included Jay Epstien of DLA Piper, Ingrid Noone of FTI Consulting, Dustin Read of Clemson University and Nancy Ruddy of CetraRuddy.

The event was sponsored by American Express, Cristaux, Dish Fiber, Resource Furniture, Yardi Systems, Walker + Dunlop and Rently.

Submissions for the 2023 Influence Awards will open in February. Any early submissions or questions can be sent to CPE editor-in-chief Jessica Fiur at [email protected].
