+ IF YOU ARE INVOLVED WITH BUILDING PRODUCTS - REGISTER NOW
​
​The BLBI 2023 event is focused on advising senior decision-makers about issues to do with regulatory change, government policy, changes to product compliance frameworks, and potential new marketing/promotional/innovation opportunities for suppliers over the next 12 months and beyond. This year we will also be looking at what decarbonisation of the construction sector is all about and why collaboration will be critical to success.
The briefing will help you understand the drivers behind the changes, identify the potential roadblocks and issues, as well as giving you the insights necessary to develop new strategies that seize the opportunities this disruption is presenting.
Our 5th annual briefing will again be held face-to-face at Lendlease's offices at Barangaroo in Sydney and we thank them for their ongoing support.
