Following a highly successful first event in 2025, Converge Expo will return to the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre for two action-packed days in 2027.
Held across two days in September 2025, the inaugural Converge Expo welcomed more than 5,000 attendees from across Australia and beyond, firmly establishing itself as a must-attend event for the civil and commercial construction sectors.
General Manager – Events at Prime Creative Media, Siobhan Rocks said the response to the first Converge Expo exceeded expectations.
“Seeing Converge Expo come to life in 2025 was incredibly rewarding,” Rocks said.
“Bringing more than 5,000 people through the doors confirmed there is a real appetite for an Australian-owned event that genuinely connects the civil and commercial construction sectors.”
Scheduled for 15–16 September 2027, the event is set to return bigger and better, expanding on everything that made its first edition a success.
Converge was designed to help the civil and commercial construction sectors secure more projects. It connects the companies, ideas and solutions that shape how projects are planned, funded and delivered.
“Converge 2027 is designed to give attendees the insight, tools and connections they need to secure their next projects,” Rocks said.
“One of the ways Converge will do this is through the Contractor Hub. This new feature brings contractors onto the show floor, creating rare face-to-face access to the people shaping upcoming projects.
“It provides opportunities to build the relationships that lead to winning projects.”
Across the exhibition hall, exhibitors will showcase the latest products, services and technologies. From asset management and construction to transport machinery, software, engineering and maintenance, every solution on display equips attendees with practical tools and insights to secure and deliver their next projects.
Through the conference program, attendees will hear from respected industry experts sharing practical insights on procurement, delivery models and market trends to help attendees strengthen bids and stay competitive when pursuing projects.
“Every session in the program is designed to give businesses the knowledge and strategies they need to succeed. Attendees leave better equipped to compete for, and win, their next projects,” Rocks said.
“We will also be introducing a new matchmaking program, Converge Connect, where contractors and subcontractors connect through curated meetings to discuss project opportunities and form the partnerships needed to secure upcoming projects.”
Networking will be a key focus at the 2027 event, with dedicated networking events such as Welcome Drinks and an Awards program will provide an informal setting to meet those within the industry, helping attendees build the connections that lead to new opportunities and successful projects.
Those interested in exhibiting are encouraged to secure their stand early and position their business at the centre of project opportunities.
