Mumbai, India : For the first time in India—and perhaps the
world—the architectural community will witness a landmark initiative aimed
exclusively at shaping, guiding, and empowering architectural careers. The
WOArchitect Career Conclave (WCC) 2025, to be held on Saturday, 14th June 2025
at NESCO, Mumbai, promises to be a transformational event that opens up new
horizons for architecture professionals, students, educators, and industry
stakeholders. The event will be inaugurated by Chief Guest Shri Narayan Rane,
Member of Parliament and former Union Cabinet Minister.
Curated by visionary architects and
co-founders of the WOArchitect platform—Ar. Milind Surve and Ar. Snehal Jagdale
Surve, both Directors at Alternate Angle and Alternate Angle Academy—WCC 2025
is a response to a long-standing gap in the architecture ecosystem. While
design excellence remains at the heart of architectural education, few
platforms truly focus on career pathways, cross-disciplinary opportunities, and
strategic professional growth. WCC addresses this need head-on, offering a
one-day immersive experience that blends career guidance, job prospects, higher
education insights, and rich industry networking.
“This conclave was born from a simple yet
powerful realisation—that architects in India often lack structured support
when it comes to navigating their careers. We wanted to create a space that not
only presents options but also enables architects to make informed, inspired
choices,” said Ar. Milind Surve, Co-Founder of WOArchitect. “Whether you’re a
fresh graduate, a mid-career professional, or someone looking to diversify into
allied fields, WCC is the platform where ideas and opportunities converge.”
The conclave’s agenda spans a full day—from
10:00 AM to 7:00 PM—and features keynote addresses, expert-led seminars,
dynamic panel discussions, a full-scale job fair with walk-in interviews, and a
higher education showcase featuring premier institutions. Eminent speakers such
as Ar. Hrishikesh Phadke, Ar. Rupali Gupte, Ar. Makarand Toraskar, and Ar. Amol
Shimpi MRICS will share their expertise across domains like technology,
research, education, legal frameworks, and management in architecture.
Highlighting the uniqueness of the conclave,
Ar. Snehal Jagdale Surve shared, “This is not just an event—it’s a movement. For too long, architects
have struggled alone to discover what lies beyond conventional practice. WCC is
our collective call to change that. We are building a holistic ecosystem that
supports lifelong learning, upskilling, and the discovery of unconventional yet
exciting career tracks. The response from the architecture community so far has
been incredibly encouraging.”
WOArchitect, the platform behind the conclave,
already serves over 15,000 members through its online ecosystem that includes career
tests, e-learning programs, job boards, and entrepreneurial resources. With WCC
2025, WOArchitect takes a major step forward in creating a real-world space for
interaction, inspiration, and industry integration.

employers, institutions, and anyone invested in the future of architectural
practice and education. To register and learn more, visit
