Champion Awards
Every year, TCREW brings the Raleigh-Durham commercial real estate community together to celebrate champions in the industry. We compile nominations for successful real estate projects and professionals throughout the Triangle area and select winners who are honored at the Awards Ceremony.
The 24th Annual TCREW Champion Awards was held on April 27, 2023 at the Embassy Suites in Cary. The sold-out luncheon attracted more than 600 business leaders to once again celebrate outstanding projects and individuals.
