The Virtual Actuarial Conclave (VAC) is an annual flagship event hosted by the Institute of Actuaries of India. It is a platform which brings renowned global speakers and eminent dignitaries from across the globle together and provides unmatched learning and networking opportunities to the members of actuarial community. It is one of the most sought-after events amongst the students, who look forward to it every year to learn from the industry leaders and trendsetters and connect with the potential employers.
VAC encapsulates a series of large expert sessions that cover a wide variety of Actuarial topics at a macro level, while diving deep into the fundamentals and on-ground challenges with smaller groups. This lends a comprehensive angle to the event, making it relevant for one and all. With a new and emerging era of digitization, VAC is an effort to continue developing the profession and encouraging valuable discussions through its platform. By embracing the digital format, this annual event that offers a sense of belonging to the entire actuarial community, has now become more accessible and global in nature.

The last two financial years have been challenging for the Die Casting Industry like never before because of the Covid-19 Pandemic with a volatile, uncertain, complex and more or less ambiguous business environment. All of us have taken some effort, courage and spirit to accept, adapt and move on. We see this sudden and unprecedented crisis as a challenge but not a road block. As Albert Einstein says ‘IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DIFFICULTY LIES OPPORTUNITY!’ It’s time to show resilience and it’s the Time for Action Now!!!
ALUCAST adapted to the new normal quickly and hosted its last edition of the Annual Event virtually very successfully – ALUCAST 2020 Virtual Conference on the theme - ALUMINIUM CASTING TECHNOLOGY FOR THE 20S… The Virtual Conference received an overwhelming response and very encouraging participation from the Die Casting Fraternity. Though we are witnessing good recovery from the pandemic situation, we still need to be cautious and ensure safety of one and all. So, we would be going virtual for this year’s Annual Event too. The Aluminium Casters’ Association (ALUCAST)®️, India is hosting its Annual Event ALUCAST 2021 – Virtual Conference and Exhibition on the Theme CURRENT TRENDS IN DIE CASTING on the 9th – 10th – 11th December 2021 that shall focus on sustainable development and growth of the Die Casting Industry moving ahead amidst current challenges - The fluctuating prices of Aluminium, increasing manufacturing costs, shortage of skilled manpower and the resultant pressures on cash flows that has become a major concern for the Die Casting Industry today.
ALUCAST 2021 assures the best value, experience and visibility for the Sponsors, Exhibitors, Speakers, Delegates and the Visitors.
We look forward to welcoming you to the upcoming 27th edition of the ALUCAST Annual Event.
