Over the course of 90 minutes, titans of the industry such as Savills, Pinsent Masons and Global Student Accommodation were recognised for their contributions in the past year.
Hosted by impressionist extraordinaire Rory Bremner, the awards included a virtual cocktail reception with the Beyond Food Foundation.
Attendees were also treated to an exclusive performance by electric string quartet Siren, and mind reading with the elusive Alex Crow.
The evening included two new entrants to the Property Week Hall of Fame, Rebecca Hopewell at Fresh and Martin Blakey at Unipol
Attendees also celebrated the first winner of the inaugural ‘International Operator of the Year’ award, won by MILESTONE.
