We are excited that, following very positive feedback from our event in 2025, the IAM Global In-Person Conference 2026 will take place over two days, 17 - 18 June 2026. The IAM Asset Management Excellence Awards will be held on the evening of 17 June at the conference dinner. Both the conference and awards will be held at the Leonardo Royal Hotel – Tower Bridge, London.   

It will bring together leading international experts and thought leaders in the discipline, providing an invaluable opportunity to learn, network, and explore the latest practical applications and best practices in asset management.   

In addition, an interactive exhibition area will showcase cutting-edge services and tools, offering delegates the chance to discover the best solutions to support their asset management needs. 

Conference Theme: Connected World – Shaping Our Future 

The IAM Global Conference 2026 will feature presentations, case studies, and interactive sessions in three streams. 

Organizations across the world are under pressure to deliver outcomes that matter in the face of accelerating political, regulatory, technological, and socio-economic change.  These outcomes are rarely the result of a single sector, organization, or asset. Instead, they are realized when outputs of systems of assets are combined, across boundaries, disciplines, and geographies. ​ 

This is driving a more complex and volatile operating environment as organizations increasingly understand the impact their outputs have on others and work together to address current and future challenges and exploit shared opportunities. 

The IAM Global Conference 2026 will explore how asset management provides the principles, practices, and leadership as part of an integrative discipline to support organizations in delivering connected systems of assets to realize better outcomes for society. In particular, we will explore: 

• Navigating volatility and complexity – understanding the challenges and opportunities of predicting for the long term 

• From silos to systems – building connections across sectors to achieve shared goals 

• Measuring what matters – exploring the different dimensions of value and how to bring them together 

Speakers will be selected from submitted abstracts. A selection panel will ensure chosen abstracts represent a diverse range of views, thought leadership, and best practices creating a unique learning and networking experience for delegates.    

Submissions are Open

Submission Deadline is Friday 23 January 2026

Winners will be announced at the IAM Global Conference dinner on the 17 June 2026.

Please note: You can submit entries in multiple categories; however, a separate submission is required for each category, and each entry must be distinctly relevant to its respective category (i.e., not the same project presented from a different perspective).

Multiple chapters held awards in 2025. Where a chapter award category is the same as a global awards category, the chapter award winner will automatically be shortlisted for the global awards.
