2024 IPWEA International Asset Management Congress Communique

Over 260 delegates from Australia, New Zealand, and further abroad, gathered in Canberra between the 28th and 29th November to attend the 2024 IPWEA International Asset Management Congress. The Congress theme was ‘Continuing the Journey to Excellence in Infrastructure Asset Management’. To shape the future of Infrastructure Asset Management, delegates reflected on the previous Communique and the recently revised IPWEA White Paper on ‘Best practice asset management of essential public infrastructure’.

Based on the valuable feedback from Congress delegates, the recommendations are now finalised in the 2024 Congress Communique.
