The 2015 season for the IAM Cycling cycling team began in January at the Tour Down Under. As a UCI WorldTeam, they were automatically invited and obligated to send a squad to every event in the UCI World Tour.

In December 2014 the UCI announced that the team would be granted a WorldTour licence for the 2015 season.[1]
