The IGTI Division Executive Committee is structured into three departments dedicated to serving the gas turbine community. These departments encompass in total twelve committees that cover all aspects of the division's activities.
OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT The Operations Department delivers networking opportunities and disseminates knowledge through Turbo Expo and associated events. It drives technical excellence through support of the technical committees and maintaining high standards in all publications through the peer review processes while ensuring financial goals are achieved in all IGTI departments.
PROFESSIONAL ENGAGEMENT DEPARTMENT The Professional Engagement Department strives to create and serve a thriving global community of gas turbine professionals and enthusiasts. It is committed to attracting and maintaining a diverse membership, to engaging and developing members through all stages of their careers, and to recognising technical excellence and outstanding contributions to the community.
STRATEGY DEPARTMENT The Outreach Department identifies and develops strategic topics that are not yet in an operational format within IGTI. This team works to curate and prototype next generation concepts based on what is needed or anticipated in our Technical Community. Ideation is done through connecting and working with critical networks within IGTI, other ASME Groups, government agencies and international think tanks.
The IGTI's vision is to be the world's leader and champion of innovative gas turbines and related energy systems to power a sustainable way of life.
