IAM India Chapter Conference 2025 - Asset Management Unlocking Value for India

The Institute of Asset Management – India Chapter is proud to present its first All India Conference on Asset Management. This landmark event will bring together leaders, practitioners, policymakers, academia, and international experts to discuss and shape the future of asset management in India. Asset Management has emerged in recent years as a strategic, integrated, long-term, value-driven approach for developing, sustaining and enhancing (infrastructure) assets. The conference will focus on the asset management of Economic Infrastructure, Social Infrastructure, Green Infrastructure, and Digital Infrastructure to deliver socio-economic-environmental outcomes for the country.

Why Asset Management matters for India?

India is at a pivotal point in its development journey. As we invest in infrastructure to support rapid urbanisation, economic growth, and sustainable development, the importance of Asset Management has never been greater. Asset Management provides a structured, systematic approach to managing the life-cycle of assets to maximise business value, improve resilience, and optimise investment, costs, and risks. By embedding Sustainability and Digitalisation into the management of assets, India can ensure its infrastructure is resilient, efficient, and future-ready.

Review criteria

 All submissions must be entered into the online form. You may submit proposals for multiple sessions. You will be able to save and return to your proposal form until the deadline: 12 September 2025. All submissions are reviewed and evaluated by the Program Review Committee. The evaluation process is competitive. Your success in the selection process depends on how well your proposal supports these primary criteria:   

• Practical application – Information can be used in day-to-day work settings, lessons learned, how-to-do-it strategies, innovative concepts and approaches, and solutions that provide improvements in asset management.  

• Relevance and clarity - Content is interesting and useful to a significant number of expected attendees. Learning objectives are clearly stated using active verbs that indicate how the participants will benefit from the information presented. Content must be relevant to the conference topic, 'why outcomes matter'.

• Balance - The Program Review Committee will also review for balance to ensure that all tracks are adequately covered in the overall education program, that any one topic area is not overrepresented, and that any one speaker or organization is not disproportionately represented among the final selections.  

No sales pitches, please! 

Direct promotion of a speaker’s/company’s products, services, or monetary self-interest is not appropriate. The audience appreciates learning about technologies, services, concepts, and new approaches; but is sensitive to the sales promotion approach. For this reason, an end user or asset owner must be included and featured in any proposal submitted by vendors or consultants.
