Malaysia’s property sector is gearing up for a night of celebration as The Edge Malaysia Property Excellence Awards (TEPEA) 2024 prepares to honor the nation’s most influential developers and projects. Now in its 22nd year, the event has evolved from recognizing top-tier developers to spotlighting visionary leaders and groundbreaking developments that shape communities. With sustainability and innovation taking center stage, this year’s awards highlight the industry’s commitment to creating livable, eco-conscious spaces.
Key industry players, including GSPARX, Porsche Malaysia, and Noritake, have partnered with TEPEA to champion excellence in real estate. GSPARX, returning as the official solar partner, emphasizes the role of green buildings in Malaysia’s push toward net-zero emissions by 2050. Meanwhile, Porsche Malaysia makes its debut, bridging the gap between mobility and property development through shared values of sustainability and forward-thinking design. These collaborations underscore the event’s mission to foster cross-industry innovation.
Sustainability remains a driving force, with developers increasingly integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles into their projects. GSPARX’s Elmie Fairul Mashuri highlights the company’s efforts to make solar energy accessible, while Porsche’s Christopher Hunter discusses the importance of future-proofing properties with EV infrastructure. Noritake’s distributor, ARTELIA, also joins the conversation, advocating for thoughtful interior design as part of holistic sustainable living. These perspectives reflect a collective push toward responsible development that balances aesthetics, functionality, and environmental impact.
The awards ceremony on November 11 will recognize achievements across multiple categories, from affordable housing to conservation efforts. The Edge’s Datuk Ho Kay Tat acknowledges the pivotal role of industry partnerships in elevating standards and inspiring progress. As Malaysia’s property market rebounds, TEPEA 2024 serves as both a celebration of past accomplishments and a catalyst for future innovation, reinforcing the sector’s role in building sustainable, connected communities.
