The contest promotes creativity and encourages the development of best construction practices while tracking those innovations that will become the new building standards of tomorrow.

Last year, the Mexico edition had 874 registered projects, from which 17 works won awards, including BioEngineering Center ITESM Campus Querétaro, Central Pavilion in Metropolitan Park "La Mexicana," Urban Renovation of Veracruz Waterfront, and West II Emitter Tunnel.

Under the slogan "Ideas that build life," the CEMEX Building Award recognizes those works that begin as mere ideas and end up being construction projects that give value to those who interact with them.
