As we look ahead, our calendar remains robust with similar engagements planned for the coming month. These initiatives are part of CEAI’s sustained effort to support our members in staying abreast of emerging trends, regulatory updates, and global best practices. I urge all member firms to actively participate and leverage these platforms not just for knowledge sharing, but also for strengthening internal capabilities and networks.

A key theme we must increasingly focus on — both in our projects and our professional development — is sustainability. The Indian sustainability consulting market is poised for significant growth in the coming years, driven by policy shifts, ESG mandates, and the urgent global call for climate resilience. This represents a tremendous opportunity for consulting engineers to contribute meaningfully to the nation’s green transition.

CEAI encourages its members to align with this movement by investing in upskilling, exploring interdisciplinary collaborations, and embedding sustainability into their core offerings. Whether it is green infrastructure, energy-efficient systems, climate-smart urban planning, or ESG advisory — our role as engineers will be pivotal in shaping a more sustainable and resilient India.

Let us collectively prepare ourselves to be at the forefront of this transformation — not just as consultants, but as trusted thought leaders and solution providers.

Thank you for your continued support and engagement. Together, we will continue to elevate the profession and contribute positively to the nation’s progress.

Warm Regards,
Prashant Kapila
President
Consulting Engineers Association of India (CEAI)
