In a fabulous night hosted by The Business Magazine and compered by Gyles Brandreth at Ascot Racecourse, the Lambert Smith Hampton Thames Valley team was recognised as THE commercial property consultancy of the year and short-listed as the industrial and logistics agency of the year.
LSH’s guest of honour, Anne Columbia, won real estate executive of the year award for her involvement in the TripAdvisor/LSH relocation project and there was also a well-deserved outstanding contribution award given to Nick Coote.
COMMERCIAL PROPERTY CONSULTANCY OF THE YEAR
WINNER: LAMBERT SMITH HAMPTON
After London, the Thames Valley is the next largest property market in the UK by volume of deals and density. This award is given to the property consultancy that has completed significant commercial and tenant deals in the office sector across the region during the qualifying period.
Nick Coote, Head of the Thames Valley for LSH collected the award and explained: “This award is important because it recognises the breadth of services that we deliver – from agency to capital markets to valuation to planning and development.
“As the most significant region outside London, the Thames Valley is a key driver for the success of the south east market. LSH continues to dominate here due to the strength and determination of a driven and joined-up team.
“Well done to everyone in the Thames Valley team – a great effort!”
OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTION AWARD
WINNER: NICK COOTE
As a property industry stalwart, Nick is both respected and liked by everyone across the board – clients, colleagues and even competitors! The reception that he was given demonstrated that everyone in the room though he was a very deserving winner.
David Murray, Editor of The Business Magazine, explained why Nick was chosen to receive the award: “When the judges came to discuss this category, a couple of people recommended Nick and the agreement was unanimous. He IS the Thames Valley personified! He is always flying the flag for the region and is a positive contributor to its success.”
