The race to modernise Australia’s essential services hinges on innovation and collaboration – and Converge is making it happen.
Australia’s municipal works, civil and commercial construction and utility sectors are gearing up for Converge, a landmark event set to unite industry leaders at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre on 17–18 September 2025.
The inaugural event promises to bring leading decision-makers from these sectors to showcase the latest technology and innovations transforming Australia’s utility industry.
As the only Australian-owned major event in the civil, construction and utility space, Converge will be a one‑stop-shop for utility managers and subcontractors.
As an Association Partner for the event, Municipal Works Australia is proud to support Converge in its very first year.
The not-for-profit, member-based association upholds and assists local government employees and companies supplying products and services within the municipal works sector – which is exactly why it is backing Converge.
Municipal Works Australia CEO, Peter Ali, said the event will be a fantastic opportunity for its members to network, discover new tools and technologies and learn from other areas of the infrastructure industry.
Converge is more than just an exhibition – it’s a dynamic space for utility professionals to explore the innovative solutions the industry has to offer, from live demonstrations to equipment showcases, to insightful conferences.
The event will bring the best of all industries together to learn from each other while providing visitors with the solutions they need to build and maintain the essential services of tomorrow.
Mr Ali said a key pain point in the municipal works sector is adopting innovation to achieve community outcomes in an efficient manner and Converge is an exciting opportunity to overcome this hurdle.
“The exhibitors at the event are subject area experts,” he said.
“There will be such a wide variety of innovative solutions on display – I can see our members gaining a lot, interacting with the exhibitors, sharing the issues they’re struggling with and asking questions to find the best solutions.”
This focus on innovation will be a key draw for decision makers sector-wide looking to stay ahead in a continuously evolving industry.
As Mr Ali put it, “Attendees and exhibitors at Converge are at the cutting edge”.
Bringing the municipal, civil and commercial infrastructure and utility sectors together in one major event like Converge is crucial to sharing innovative technology and solutions across different parts of the utility landscape.
With more than one million decision makers in its orbit, Converge is set to become the go-to event for professionals looking to drive the sector forward.
