CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) announced today the 26 finalists that will participate in the International Edition of the 2022 CEMEX Building Award, a competition that recognizes the best construction projects around the world for their creative and innovative use of concrete.
This year the competition features architecture and infrastructure projects from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Egypt, France, Jamaica, Mexico, Montenegro, Panama, Poland, the Philippines, and Spain.
