2024 CEE Deals of the Year Nominations
CEE Legal Matters received 325 submissions for the 22 Deals of the Year Awards for 2024. Based on all these submissions, a total of 217 deals are eligible for one or (in some cases) multiple awards this year. The list of nominated deals was not included for jurisdictions with 3 or less eligible submissions (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Greece, Montenegro, and North Macedonia) as those are automatically shortlisted and will be announced on January 29.
The winners of the 2024 Deals of the Year award in each country will be announced at the annual CEELM Deal of the Year Awards Banquet scheduled for April 1, 2025, in Prague. Save the date!
In the meantime, our thanks to everyone who submitted deals for consideration. We appreciate the time and effort you put into the process, and we – like you – are eager to see the results and celebrate the winners this spring in Prague. Good luck, one and all!
