BUILDINGS Takes Top Honors at Maggie, Azbee Awards Presentations
BUILDINGS Media recently received awards from two business-to-business (B2B) publishing organizations.
The brand was also a Maggie award finalist in Best Feature Article for “Millennials and Gen Z in Facilities Management.” This article looked at the aging and retirement of current facilities managers, what organizations can do to attract and retain talent, and how millennials and Generation Z can become facilities managers.
The American Society of Business Publication Editors (ASBPE) honored BUILDINGS at ASBPE’s 41st annual Azbee Awards of Excellence banquet on May 10. There, the brand was recognized for its Trade Show/Conference coverage from the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA)’s annual event for the show dailies and related articles the BUILDINGS team produced on-site. The coverage received a National Bronze award.
