Ngā mihi nui to our fantastic event partners

There is still an opportunity to sponsor an award category at this year’s Building People Awards, connecting your brand with industry leaders and celebrating the people behind outstanding work.

‘We really enjoyed the night and found it well organised and well attended, with excellent brand exposure for the sponsors. We’ve done a few of these events in Aus, most recently the week before last, and yours takes the cake. In particular, your use of sponsor video in the foyer and before the award category added extra value and helped connect the brand to the category and values behind it.’ - Hubexo - First-time sponsor, 2025.
