The BCI Asia Top 10 Awards (Building and Construction Information), rebranded as the Hubexo Asia Awards in 2025,[1] are presented annually across seven Asian markets to developers and architectural firms, based primarily on the total value of their active construction projects. Established in 2005, the awards are held in Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. The program recognizes developers, contractors, and architectural firms that have made outstanding contributions to the built environment in the region.[2]
The awards are presented to the ten developers and architectural firms with the highest total construction value of projects currently under development during the preceding calendar year.[3][4]The reported construction values are adjusted to account for sustainability criteria, weighted according to verified green building certifications recognized by the World Green Building Council.[5][6]
BCI Asia's evaluation methodology places a higher weighting on industrial, commercial office, and hospitality projects.[7] The criteria also encompass pre-tender projects, acknowledging early-stage green design initiatives and a firm's environmental commitment from the inception of a project. A single project may receive recognition twice during its lifespan: once at the tender stage and again when the main contract is awarded in the following year.[8]
The awards comprise four main categories: Top 10 Architects, Top 10 Developers, the FuturArc Prize, and the BCI Asia Interior Design Awards.[9] The annual ceremony is held as an invitation-only event and serves as a networking platform for architects, developers, manufacturers, and service providers across Asia.[10]
History
The awards were established by Arlene "Apple" Agapay Patricio, a construction business analyst in Southeast Asia.[citation needed]
In 2025, marking the programme's 20th anniversary, BCI Asia rebranded the awards as the Hubexo Asia Awards, aligning the event with the parent company Hubexo's global identity.[11]
The 2025 ceremonies were held in-person across most markets, including at the Ocean Park Marriott Hotel in Hong Kong (June 2025),[12] the JW Marriott in Kuala Lumpur (August 2025),[13] Raffles Jakarta (August 2025),[14] and Shangri-La The Fort in Manila (September 2025).[15]
