As you whiteboard and calendar for the year ahead, mark these opportunities to learn, connect and grow though IAMC. And be sure to bookmark www.iamc.org/calendar for updates and further information about meetings as well as the continuing series of Corporate Connect webinars.

As industrial real estate decisions grow more strategic and complex, professionals need structured learning experiences that build both knowledge and practical capability. The IAMC PILLAR™ program is designed to help participants develop industrial expertise by combining foundational knowledge with real-world application.

Industrial corporate real estate strategy has entered a new phase. Power constraints are influencing site viability. AI is reshaping operations and portfolio analytics. Manufacturing reshoring and regionalization are altering location strategy. Workforce competition remains intense, and capital discipline is tighter. Internal stakeholders expect faster, more precise answers. In this environment, waiting six months between Forums to exchange ideas is no longer enough.

At IAMC, our mission is to create meaningful connections and deliver industry-leading professional development for corporate real estate and industrial asset management professionals. As we look ahead to 2026, IAMC is proud to offer a full calendar of programming designed to help members learn, collaborate, and grow – no matter where they are in their careers or in the world.

This year’s National Manufacturing Day on October 3 saw more than 580 official events take place across the country, many of them involving IAMC member organizations. Here are highlights from a few of them.
