Proximo Black Tie Industry Awards Dinner

The North American project finance community gathered at the Proximo Industry Awards Dinner on 24 June — the night before Proximo Congress 2026 — hosted at Nashville's iconic Country Music Hall of Fame.

It was an evening spent among the most active dealmakers in the region — the people behind the transactions shaping North American infrastructure — set against the heart and soul of Music City.

We unveiled the Proximo North American Deals of the Year 2025, honouring the transactions that moved the market forward. The largest-ever bank-financed data centre. Bold new power structures. Record-breaking toll road financings. Groundbreaking high-speed rail bonds. First-of-their-kind fuel cell deployments for AI. These were the deals and the dealmakers that defined the year.

Winners were selected through rigorous editorial adjudication, combined with the market's own voice through Proximo's deals database, making these awards a true reflection of the industry.
