Welcome to the Global Property Congress 2025

Dear Delegates,

Welcome to the inaugural API Global Property Congress to be held on 26-29 May in Sydney, Australia.  We are pleased to collaborate on this important event with the World Association of Valuation Organisations (WAVO), International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC), Property Institute New Zealand (PINZ) and the International Association of Assessing Officers (IAAO). This will also be the 5th WAVO IVSC Global Conference.

It our great honour to host so many distinguished Australian and global property professionals as we gather to shape the future for the sector.

This Congress, themed “Navigating the Future: Innovation, Sustainability, and Resilience in the Global Property Profession,” is a timely call to action and commitment to advancing the profession.

In today’s rapidly evolving environment, our collective ability to innovate, adopt sustainable practices and skillsets, and build resilient frameworks is more crucial than ever. Throughout the Congress, you will engage in thought-provoking discussions, share innovative ideas, and explore strategies that not only address current challenges but anticipate the demands of tomorrow’s property landscape.  Your expertise and engagement at this important Congress will support a dynamic, resilient, and sustainable global property sector.

We are thrilled to be holding this event in Sydney, a city that embodies modern innovation, centres of commerce and full of historic and cultural richness. Scheduled during the annual Vivid Festival, with the 2025 theme being “Creativity, Innovation and Technology”,  the Congress has the perfect backdrop for this exchange of ideas.

Thank you for being part of this important event.  I look forward to seeing you in May in Sydney.

Warm regards,

Amelia Hodge
Chief Executive
