The shortlist has been announced for the 2022 Building Innovation Awards.
Back by popular demand, the Building Innovation Awards are an occasion to recognise and celebrate the individuals, organisations and partnerships that are taking UK construction to the next level.
This year’s finalists are top innovators from across the sector, who are pioneering technologies, approaches and projects that deliver a greener, smarter and safer built environment for all.
The awards will be presented at a gala dinner and ceremony on 27th October 2022 at The Point, Emirates Old Trafford in Manchester.

Commenting on the awards, editor at Build in Digital, Siôn Geschwindt, said: “It’s impressive to see the calibre of this year’s finalists. These projects, people and technologies represent the future of construction in the UK. We look forward to presenting the winners on the night and welcoming you all to an event that promises to be a night to remember!”
The evening begins with a welcome drinks reception, followed by a three-course dinner with complimentary wine. Dinner will be followed by the awards ceremony and entertainment – The Bandeoke Experience.
The Bandeoke Experience is a specialist show providing a fun interactive way for you to party, where you and your guests come up on stage and sing with an experienced live band and strut your stuff.
