The PropTech Awards recognise companies that use technology to solve practical real estate problems, such as making transactions clearer, buildings easier to run, data easier to use and homes and workplaces better for the people in them. The formal category is Proptech Platform Of The Year, part of the smart building award categories, and it is described as recognition for the technology platforms that underlie smart real estate.
The category is open to early-stage companies with a product in live use and to established technology providers. What matters is not the size of the company but what the platform does, who relies on it and what has changed for its real estate users as a result.
Eligible platform types include transaction and listing tools, property and facility management software, smart building and operations systems, valuation and analytics tools, construction technology, tenant and resident experience apps and real estate fintech. Companies from any country can enter.
A technology company and the building that uses its product can both be recognised, but in different categories. Choose the one your strongest evidence supports.
| If your strongest story is… | Consider |
|---|---|
| The technology product itself, across many clients or assets | Proptech Platform Of The Year |
| A specific building and how its integrated systems perform | Smart Building, Smart Residential Building or Smart Commercial Building Of The Year |
| A hotel or serviced property and its guest technology | Smart Hospitality Building Award |
| Rapid growth of a property business that uses technology | Real Estate Scale-Up Of The Year |
Entries are scored by the Jury team or the Management of Golden Tree against the four universal dimensions in the judging criteria: Excellence, Outcomes, Innovation and Evidence. Smart-building categories carry additional weighting on verified technology integration and operational performance. In practice, evaluators ask what problem the platform solves, how widely and reliably it is used, what has measurably improved for its real estate users, and whether each claim can be checked.
Use your own records only. If something has not been measured, leave it out rather than estimate it; a short list of verifiable facts carries more weight than broad claims. The award submission guide and how to nominate pages explain the entry steps.
Your platform is assessed against published criteria by the Jury team or the Management of Golden Tree.
Preparing an entry helps you set out your product's purpose, users and results in one evidence-based account.
The gala brings together developers, agencies, operators and technology companies from across the property sector.
