Building it. Running it. Delivering it. One room.
Building it. Running it. Delivering it. One room.

Australia's energy and resources build is live. The operators delivering it are under more pressure than anyone planned for. This is where they come to get ahead of it.
Australia is in the middle of the largest energy and resources build in its history. Renewable generation, transmission infrastructure, gas development, mine site electrification, industrial processing, network upgrades. The programs are live. The capital is committed. The pressure to deliver is greater than at any point in a generation.
But the build is breaking down. The inputs project schedules were built around are unavailable or arriving months late. Sometimes years. Costs locked in a different environment are blowing through every budget on every active program. Projects are stalling. The standard recovery plans are not closing the gap. The workforce Australia needs does not exist at the rate programs are demanding. And the supply chains underpinning everything have single points of failure most organisations have not yet mapped.
Australia's Energy and Resources Delivery Summit brings together the leaders responsible for making this happen. The operators, project directors, procurement heads, and delivery leaders who own what gets built, what keeps running, and what gets delivered across Australia's energy and resources build.
Who Attends?
The operators, project leaders, and procurement heads who develop, own, run, and build Australia's energy and resources infrastructure. Personally accountable when delivery fails.
Resources and Mining
Fuel costs are structural. Electrification is behind. Input supply chains are exposed. This is where operations and project leaders get ahead of it.
Operations and Asset Management
Responsible for keeping generation, networks, mine sites, and industrial facilities running reliably when the inputs needed to maintain them are constrained, delayed, or more expensive than operational budgets can absorb.
Job Titles Include:- Head of Operations
- General Manager Operations
- Head of Asset Management
- Head of Reliability and Maintenance
- Head of Generation
- Plant Manager
- Head of Maintenance
Project and Program Delivery
Executing the energy and resources build on programs that are behind schedule, over budget, and under commercial pressure. In an environment that was not anticipated when programs were scoped or contracted.
Job Titles Include:- Project Director
- Program Director
- Head of Capital Projects
- Head of Infrastructure Delivery
- Head of Construction
- Head of Engineering
- Head of Project Controls
- Delivery Director
Procurement, Commercial and Supply Chain
Making the sourcing, contracting, and commercial decisions that determine whether programs keep moving, operations keep running, and boards stay informed. Across the most contested supply environment in a generation.
Job Titles Include:- Chief Procurement Officer
- Head of Procurement
- Head of Supply Chain
- Head of Commercial
- Head of Contracts
- Commercial Director
- Head of Cost Management
The Seven Challenges Defining How Energy and Resources Infrastructure Is Built, Run, and Delivered in Australia
Supply chains are breaking across every program
The operators who map their exposure first will be the ones still delivering. This is where they find out how.
Your budget was built for a world that no longer exists
Every cost model built on pre-2022 assumptions is wrong. This is where the leaders who have rebuilt theirs share exactly what they changed.
Half the projects in this room are at risk of significant delay
The difference between the programs that deliver and the ones that don't is being decided right now. This is where you find out which side yours is on.
The way you sourced, contracted, and planned three years ago is creating the pressure you are under today
The operators who have rebuilt their approach are ahead. This is where they share what they did differently.
Your assets were built for a different operating environment
Keeping them running reliably while costs rise and parts get harder to source is the most immediate commercial risk in this room. This is where the leaders managing it best compare notes.
The people your programs and operations depend on are the most competed-for resource in the market
The organisations that secure capability now will be the ones that can actually execute. This is where they share how they did it.
Your program is ready to build. The approvals aren't there
The organisations navigating regulatory and planning bottlenecks fastest are the ones keeping their programs alive. This is where they share what works.
Where Australia's Energy and Resources Build Decisions Are Made
Australia's energy and resources build is live. Billions are committed across generation, networks, gas, mining, and industrial infrastructure. Delivery is under pressure on every active program.
Position your organisation at the centre of these decisions. Connect with the operators, project directors, and procurement heads responsible for what gets built, what keeps running, and what gets delivered. These are the decision-makers determining what gets sourced, how it is contracted, where risk is held, and which delivery partners are chosen.
With opportunities across panels, case studies, interactive discussion groups, and networking, this is your platform to demonstrate capability, build relationships, and position your organisation within the programs shaping Australia's energy and resources future.
