Nominations for the 2026 Real Deals Private Equity Awards are now open!

For more than 25 years, the Real Deals Private Equity Awards have grown to become the most prestigious and well-established awards in Europe’s private equity industry. Each year, we welcome close to 1,000 of the most influential figures in the sector to celebrate the fund managers and advisers who have made an outstanding contribution over the past 12 months.

Our judging process maintains complete independence and integrity - all entries are evaluated by our expert panel of industry leaders based solely on merit, achievement, and the quality of submission, with no consideration given to sponsorship status or prior relationships with Real Deals.

Join us on Wednesday, 15 April 2026, at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House Hotel, London.
