LAMA Awards

What are the LAMA Awards?

 The LAMA Awards, in association with IPB,  acknowledge exceptional individuals, organizations, and now Irish companies, and celebrates their accomplishments in the areas of engineering, infrastructure, business, history and culture.

 Through nominations by County, City, Town and Borough Councillors throughout Ireland, worthy projects and initiatives can be nominated for an award in any of our 21 categories, including six new categories! Once a project is nominated, the individual(s) associated with the nominated project or initiative are contacted and given the opportunity to submit an entry into the awards. Detailed criteria for each category are easily available in the Category section of our website.

 The category winners will be announced at the Awards ceremony on February 11^th, 2012 at the Crowne Plaza in Dublin, which will once again be hosted by Miriam O’Callaghan. All winners will be presented with a beautiful, bespoke, engraved crystal trophy and will also have a photo opportunity with one of the VIP presenters. Winners of these prestigious awards will also receive an Awards logo for use on their website and for all printed corporate materials.
