UDIA NSW PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Peter Grogan

UDIA NSW is excited to partner with Urban Property Group for the 2025 UDIA NSW Awards for Excellence.
These Awards celebrate the most prestigious projects and leaders in the urban development industry, showcasing our commitment to shaping future cities.
​
As we prepare for 2025, it’s crucial to recognise our industry’s resilience amidst the housing crisis. We’ve adapted and achieved a great deal throughout the year. These Awards are more significant than ever, recognising excellence across categories like technology, sustainability, environmental preservation, and innovative marketing for residential, industrial, and commercial development.
​
We encourage nominees to submit their projects. The rigorous assessment by independent judges and industry leaders is worth the effort, as winners and finalists gain wide recognition from the community, stakeholders, and media. Certain category winners will also represent NSW in the 2026 UDIA National Awards for Excellence.
​
The UDIA NSW 2025 Awards for Excellence are now open for entry. Submit your projects and let’s celebrate the best our industry has to offer.
