Utah CCIM chapter honors top commercial real estate professionals at 2020 event
Salt Lake City– The Utah Chapter of CCIM honored more than 40 finalists in 15 award categories and recognized six new and redeveloped projects at its 2021 Excellence Awards event. Held at the Grand America Hotel on Saturday, May 15th, the annual awards program honored professionals within Utah’s commercial real estate industry who exemplify the highest degree of business excellence, as well as highlighted some of the year’s most notable projects and transactions. This year’s event theme was “Stabilizing Forces.”
Recipients for the top sale and lease transactions of the year were awarded in each commercial property type, as were the top producers for each property type. The top developments of the year and annual Hall of Fame award were also given. This year’s Hall of Fame recipient was Tom Uriona, recently retired Senior Director of Corporate Real Estate with Intermountain Healthcare. In addition, four scholarships—funded jointly by Price Real Estate and the Utah CCIM Chapter—were awarded to students at the University of Utah.
“We were quite fortunate to hold this year’s Excellence Awards event in person, and it was a wonderful night of celebrating one another’s accomplishments and socializing in person—many of us for the first time since last year’s event,’” commented Jody Jones, Utah CCIM Excellence Awards event chair. “We realized that in 2020 this event occurred just one week before things began to shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we were lucky enough to be one of the first major industry events held since the vaccine has become widely available. We truly appreciate all our sponsors and supporters who were a stabilizing force in keeping our industry strong throughout these unprecedented times and want to congratulate all those who were recognized at this year’s event.”
