The list of projects that will be receiving recognition in Geneva in September not only reflects the excellence of the work of consulting engineers and the value that the whole engineering, construction and infrastructure industry brings to society by delivering world-class projects, it also demonstrates the vital impact that these projects have in making a positive difference to people’s lives.

“Once again, this year, our FIDIC past presidents, who made up the judging panel, have done an excellent job and I want to thank each and every one of them for all their hard work. I am really delighted that FIDIC is recognising brilliant engineering work with its Project Awards and I’m looking forward to see all the winners unveiled when the final announcements are made at the FIDIC Global Infrastructure Conference in Geneva in September.”
