PIVOT Awards
The PIVOT Awards™ recognize visionaries who have made pivotal contributions to Oklahoma’s commercial real estate industry. As part of the Commercial Real Estate Summit, the PIVOT Awards celebrate individuals and organizations whose leadership, innovation, and creativity are shaping the future of the industry.
Purpose
One of the key purposes of the annual Summit is to promote leading-edge dialogue across all segments of the commercial real estate profession. The PIVOT Awards are presented to professionals who have demonstrated exceptional impact, innovation, and contributions to the industry in the previous year.
Award categories may include roles such as development, brokerage, finance, public service, architecture, appraisal, and more. Not every category is awarded each year — the focus is on recognizing meaningful achievement.
Why It Matters
The PIVOT Awards are more than just recognition — they highlight the individuals and organizations driving growth, fostering change, and advancing the commercial real estate industry in Oklahoma. Past honorees reflect a rich tradition of leadership, creativity, and collaboration that continues to elevate the industry.
