As we sit at a critical point of the future of our earth, education around improving sustainability for the built environment is more important than ever. This year the Sustainability Summit is leading the way, delivering inspiration and industry-leading knowledge over a full-day symposium.

Scheduled for Thursday 10th November as a hybrid event, the Sustainability Summit is back and bigger than ever as it rises to the challenge of driving Australia’s built environment toward a better future. Join us at Sydney’s Shangri-La hotel, or online, for seven CPD-accredited sessions and an opening keynote that will feature speakers who are pioneering thought leadership across the industry.

After two years as a digital event, the Summit is taking the ease of virtual conferences and combining it with a networking-focused physical event: providing a hybrid experience that extends attendance opportunities to all – no matter how you like to join or where you are in Australia.

From panels on circular economy to social sustainability, affordable housing to disaster-resilient buildings, the 2022 program is covering everything you need to know to push your limits on sustainable design outcomes. Whether you’re joining us in person or from the comfort of your home and workplace, make sure you’re there as we set the agenda for the future of Australia’s design landscape.
