Australia’s infrastructure industry is at a pivotal moment as the call for sustainable, circular practices continues to shape how major projects are planned and delivered. At the forefront of this transformation is the ecologiQ Greener Infrastructure Conference, returning to Melbourne in 2025 with a renewed focus on practical, scalable solutions for embedding recycled and reused materials into the infrastructure lifecycle.
Registration officially opens on 2 July 2025, with early bird discounts available until 12 August 2025.
Held over two days at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, the conference is delivered in strategic partnership with government and industry stakeholders and brings together policy makers, engineers, contractors, sustainability professionals, and procurement specialists. It’s the premier national platform for collaboration, knowledge-sharing and innovation in circular infrastructure.
This year’s event will be hosted by Jamie Durie, environmental advocate and sustainable designer, whose deep experience in green design will help shape the conversation.
The 2025 program builds on the success of previous years with a rich mix of keynote addresses, panel discussions, case studies and presentations, all designed to move beyond theory and into real-world implementation.
The agenda will explore how recycled materials can be embedded from the earliest stages of project design through to delivery and how policy frameworks like Victoria’s Recycled First Policy are evolving to support this shift. Technology, procurement, and innovation will feature prominently, with a strong emphasis on how industry can meet emerging government targets and infrastructure mandates.
By attending, organisations will have the chance to engage directly with decision-makers from across the infrastructure ecosystem – including representatives from state and local government, tier one contractors, industry, and sustainability leaders. These connections offer critical insight into regulatory changes, standards development, and the strategic priorities shaping the next generation of infrastructure projects.
Importantly, the conference provides a platform to elevate the profile of businesses already driving change. Participants will gain visibility among a highly targeted and engaged audience, positioning themselves as leaders in the transition to a circular economy. It’s a chance to not only share achievements, innovations, and products but also contribute meaningfully to a sector-wide transformation.
The ecologiQ Greener Infrastructure Conference is more than just an event – it’s a catalyst for change. As the infrastructure sector continues to respond to the demands of a low-carbon future, this forum plays a vital role in connecting policy with practice and innovation with action.
