ICPPM2026 - 2nd ASMS ESG Award & Professional Project Manager Award.

By

Mr. Jim John

We are pleased to invite applications for the ESG Award and the Professional Project Manager Award. Both awards require applicants to submit one project that demonstrates your capability in delivering successful projects.

For the ESG Award, you may choose to apply for E (Environmental), S (Social), or G (Governance) individually. If you select G, your submission should clearly illustrate how governance was managed within the project, including oversight, controls, transparency, and decision‑making.

For the Professional Project Manager Award, while a project may involve a full team, only one Project Manager can be nominated as the official applicant, and your submission should therefore highlight your own leadership, competence, and contribution within a collaborative environment.

Don’t hesitate — and don’t miss this internationally recognised award opportunity. Your project deserves to be seen.
