From volume home builders, master planners, engineers, and architects, to community housing providers, government decision makers, product and material suppliers, and many more.
Our conference theme this year, "It's happening", underscores the importance of active participation and staying focussed on the importance of our homes as key to many of the challenges we face – cost of living, health, education and productivity, the energy crisis and climate.
