Finalists gather ahead of property awards showcase
THE finalists for the 2020-2021 ProCon Leicestershire Property and Construction Awards were in the spotlight at a showcase event at Leicester’s Winstanley House.
Finalists, sponsors and ProCon members met to take a look at and discuss the finalists at the evening reception sponsored by Corporate Architecture.
ProCon chairman Umesh Desai told the guests: “Welcome to our first actual face-to-face event since March 2020. It’s nice to see everyone back out and about.
“Congratulations to all our finalists. As the awards covered two years, we have a multitude of very high-quality applications and I know from my own experience that we judges found it extremely hard to make our decisions.”
The 18th ProCon Awards are supported by four corporate sponsors: Gateley Legal, Salus Approved Inspectors, Unique Window Systems and Vistry Partnerships.
