WINNER: Archus, Mott MacDonald, Q5, Hoare Lea, BDP, Welsh Rugby Union and Cardiff & Vale University Health Board: Dragon’s Heart Hospital/Ysbyty Calon y Ddraig

Channelling the strength and spirit of the Welsh dragon, this multidisciplinary team of professionals, from all walks of life, came together to deliver a monumental feat of planning, ingenuity and wholehearted commitment to deliver a 1,500-bed surge hospital, the largest in Wales and one of the largest freestanding structures of its kind in Europe.

This was delivered successfully against a backdrop of significant technical and logistical challenges, but the key challenge was simply the tremendous speed at which the team had to work – to deliver in under four weeks.
