For the second consecutive year, Connect Media will honor women whose talent, drive, and fresh ideas have helped them succeed and become influential in commercial real estate. Nominations for the 2018 Women in Real Estate Awards are open, and we welcome your input.

The inaugural edition of these awards identified 40 women who have reached respected positions of leadership, and play key mentorship roles for others in the industry. That number was increased from the original target of 25 honorees, as we saw the quality and quantity of nominations coming in.

With the addition of the Chicago region to our coverage map, this year we’re looking for 50 of the best and brightest in the four U.S. regions where Connect provides daily news reporting, as well as nationally.

Along with nominees from across the country, we’re also looking across the CRE spectrum. Last year’s winners included women in development, finance, brokerage, investment sales and construction, to name a few of the disciplines that were represented.

After considering your recommendations, we’ll choose this year’s honorees. We’ll begin announcing them in November.

Please return your nomination by Oct. 8, 2018.
