2025 CEE Deals of the Year Nominations
CEE Legal Matters received 301 submissions for the 23 Deals of the Year Awards for 2025. Based on all these submissions, a total of 253 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, Georgia, Greece, and Montenegro) as those are automatically shortlisted and will be announced on January 30.
The winners of the 2025 Deals of the Year award in each country will be announced at the annual CEELM Deal of the Year Awards Banquet scheduled for May 27, 2026, in Bucharest. 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 May in Bucharest. Good luck, one and all!
