Dubai Land Department, DLD, has announced the winners of the Gulf Real Estate Awards 2018, who were honoured at a closing ceremony yesterday.
The department received more than 170 nominations submitted by 69 companies in 22 categories from eight countries including Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, as well as Egypt, India and the Maldives from outside the GCC region.
Sultan Butti bin Mejren, DLD Director-General, said, “Even though this is only the second edition of the Gulf Real Estate Awards, the programme has already acquired an international reputation that exceeds the boundaries of the region. This evident from the entries we received from non-GCC countries, shows the great confidence that the world has in Dubai’s initiatives and transparent judging mechanisms. This year, we were pleased to introduce the ‘Real Estate Personality of the Year’ award, which is designed to honour deserving members of the sector and will strengthen the competitive culture we have fostered through the Gulf Real Estate Awards.”
