As the only Australian-owned major event showcasing the latest tools and technology in municipal works, civil and commercial construction, the Converge Expo is gaining unprecedented industry support.
Positioned as a one-stop-shop event for subcontractors, project engineers, council fleet managers and large-scale contractors, the 2025 event will feature live demonstrations, equipment showcases and dedicated conference spaces. This industry gathering aims to provide a platform for professionals to collaborate, share insights and discover practical solutions for building and maintaining Australia's future.
With nearly a year to go, Converge has already garnered strong support from leading industry associations, reflecting growing excitement across the construction landscape.
Partners such as Carpentry Australia, the Australasian Society for Trenchless Technology, NexGen, Municipal Works Australia, National Precast Concrete Association Australia (National Precast), Empowered Women in Trades (EWIT), the Australian Flexible Pavement Association (AfPA), and AustStab have all signed on.
EWIT General Manager Melinda Davis said the organisation would support a Women in Trades hub at the event.
"The EWIT hub will bring together brilliant organisations doing incredible work in the space and allow for connection, collaboration, and support for a united front as we all work to see women thrive in the industry. The expert knowledge that will be available to access at the event is next level," she said.
