The who’s who of civil construction will unite to showcase the cutting-edge tools, ideas and technologies that will shape future utility projects at a new event in 2025.
The inaugural Converge expo will descend on the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre from 17–18 September 2025 and will host top decision-makers from the industry.
Converge will cater to utilities and asset managers, providing unparalleled exposure to the latest equipment, tools and technologies delivering premium construction outcomes for the utility, commercial and civil construction industries.
From pipeline installation equipment to the latest technology, the exhibition will serve as a one-stop-shop for utility managers and subcontractors, with a special focus on emissions‑free technology.
Civil construction and maintenance will also be a key focus of the event. Tier 1 to 3 contractors will gain exclusive insights into the latest equipment and technology reshaping the industry. Leaders from major civil works projects will share their knowledge on Victoria’s Big Build and the state’s ten-year, $120 billion infrastructure pipeline.
As Australia’s only one-stop-shop for municipal works and major civil construction, the event promises an immersive experience that takes utility operators on a journey from the small scale to the large.
More than just an exhibition, attendees can expect equipment showcases, live demonstrations and thought-provoking conference spaces offering invaluable insight to drive future development and maintenance across Australia’s utility networks.
In addition to hands-on tools and machinery, Converge will also have a dedicated zone offering live demonstrations of the latest software transforming commercial construction.
These technologies will play a crucial role in engaging communities with the works being carried out in their backyards and are vital to securing the social license needed to proceed positively with projects.
Building connections
Converge attendees and exhibitors will benefit from extensive media coverage in the lead up, during and after the event, with exposure to an accumulated audience of decision makers totalling more than one million people.
“Whether you’re an engineer, asset manager, project or procurement manager, or even a subcontractor, Converge is the event for you,” show director Lauren Chartres said.
“Built by Australians, for Australian construction, we’ve designed the event as a one-stop shop, where attendees can gather all the information they need to enhance their municipal and civil construction projects now and into the future.
“Our focus is on ensuring different sectors within the construction industry can learn from one another and gain the valuable insights they need to deliver on their ultimate goal: executing complex construction developments on time, on budget and to the highest standard.”
