KEO International Consultants has received an award for
its ‘South of Shamkha Master Plan’ at the 2008 MIPIM AR Future Project
Awards ceremony held in Cannes, France, recently.
The MIPIM Real Estate Conference and Exhibition is held
each March and over 30,000 visitors attend the event from around the
globe. Accepting the award, Paul DeVylder, Vice President - KEO International, and master planner of Shamkha, said: “This honour means a lot to the firm and to me personally as it exemplifies our incredible global growth story. South of Shamkha is an opportunity that comes along once in a lifetime, that of planning a completely new city for a municipality based on the homes and heritage of 10,000 citizen families.” Donna Sultan, CEO of KEO International Consultants said: “We are deeply honored to be accepting this our first award at MIPIM for our master planning work for the new city of Shamkha in Abu Dhabi. “The master plan’s uniqueness stems from carefully considered planning principles that drove how the future city’s structure evolved. KEO first identified and agreed to key priorities in creating a sustainable city, one that would offer quality of life for its residents and would provide attractive investment opportunities while remaining culturally relevant.” |
