EARLY BIRD TICKETS
CONSULTANCY & ENGINEERING AWARDS 2022
The Consultancy and Engineering Awards return as an in-person gala evening ceremony at the London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square on Thursday 3 November 2022.
Building on the success of last year’s virtual awards, we’re delighted to share that this year’s celebration takes place face-to-face.
The Consultancy & Engineering Awards celebrate the outstanding achievements of our industry and champion the best people, projects and companies from the world of engineering, consultancy and the built environment.
Uniquely for the industry and judged by the industry, the Consultancy and Engineering Awards provide a great opportunity to demonstrate leadership, celebrate performance, recognise and reward colleagues, and shine a spotlight on partners. After two years with few opportunities for the industry to meet face-to-face, they will provide an informal environment for networking and for celebration with clients.
Nominations are now open until Friday 1 July at 4.00pm for the 11 award categories. The online process has been further simplified this year to make it even easier to enter – click on an award category below to find out more and fill out our online nomination form.
Early bird tickets are available to purchase online now until Friday 1 July at 4.00pm. Prices are further discounted for those who work for ACE and EIC members, and for those who reserve a table (10 seats).
