For those of you feeling the pressure to hit deadlines to submit for IJGlobal Awards 2023, we have some good news it has – by popular demand – been pushed back to the end of this week… for Company submissions.

You can submit for company categories (MLA, legal adviser, financial advisory, etc) up to Friday 15 December. However – for the first time – we are keeping the portal open until 31 December for Deals.

The submissions portal can be accessed here…

Previously, we closed the awards portal mid-December and transactions that aimed to close before the end of the calendar year could be submitted, but would be rejected should they not achieve the goal.

IJGlobal Awards recognise achievements in infrastructure / energy greenfield financing and refinance with events hosted in London, New York, Singapore and Dubai.

We believe that IJGlobal Awards – judged by 5 separate independent panels of industry experts – are the most peer-review in the sector, selected in the most transparent processes to be run by any publication and presented at the most entertaining awards nights.

IJGlobal Awards recognise greenfield deals and refinancing that reach financial close in the 2023 calendar year across the many sectors that combine to reflect infrastructure and energy as defined by this title and (largely) the market.

To help submitters target their entries, we have given greater guidance to the sections that we hope clarify – in a few words – what the judges are looking for in each category.

The agenda for IJGlobal Awards 2023 is:

• company submissions close – 15 December
• transaction submissions close – 31 December
• judgment days – January (2024)
• shortlists announced – late January
