See the program
We’re excited to announce the dates for our fourth Annual Forum and invite you to join us in Brisbane on Tuesday 20 – Wednesday 21 August.
As you’ll know, the CRC TiME Annual Forum is a dedicated event for our valued partners across the government, mining, METS and research sectors as well as First Nations and regional communities.
Attendance is by invitation only. Look out for program updates in the coming weeks. All partners receive one complimentary registration. Additional tickets can also be purchased. Places are limited this year so get in quick.
What we heard from you
Feedback from last year’s event told us that networking remains your primary reason to attend, along with developing a better understanding of the CRC’s research findings and the closure and transition space. We also heard the interest in project-focussed information and how the Forum could be used to foreshadow and develop future projects.
What to expect at this year’s Forum
Our time in the Latrobe Valley was invaluable, and we remain grateful for our local partners and new friends for their time, support and knowledge.
While we’d love to, the significant logistical arrangements, as well as travel required for attendees, means it is not possible to hold our Forum regionally every year. The team plans to ‘go regional’ with the Forum every second year, with alternate years held in city locations around the country.
This year we’re excited to head to Brisbane, the home of our co-host, The University of Queensland.
In 2024 you can expect:
- more sharing of findings from completed projects
- workshopping and testing of prototype tools
- further discussion about current and emerging partner needs
- to contribute to 2024-2027 research and impact planning
- a considered, engaging Forum that delivers high value for you.
And, the Forum will continue to work alongside our ongoing program of regional visits, engagements and workshops.
Conference dinner
Attendees, please keep the first conference night, Tuesday 20 August, free for a conference dinner.
