ESG in construction & real estate

ESG considerations in construction and real estate encompass a wide range of practices aimed at reducing environmental impact, promoting social responsibility, and ensuring ethical governance. These factors have become progressively crucial for companies in these sectors to remain competitive, attract investors, and meet the expectations of a more environmentally and socially conscious market.

In Europe, the promotion of ESG is driven by initiatives such as the EU Taxonomy, SFDR and CSRD.

Voting & judging criteria

During the public vote, the whole list of each award will be visible. After this round, all nominees are still able to win the awards.
