National Conference2022

'Shaping the Future'

After a two-year hiatus, the highly acclaimed Industry Partners Australia National Conference was back, bigger than ever!


Held in the beautiful Hunter Valley at the Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort, this event exceeded our expectations, considering the economic climate of 2022. The turnout was the biggest in our 30-year history, and the positive feedback was a testimony to the hard work and effort that was undertaken to make this event such an incredible success.

Below is an overview of the conference for those who regretfully missed out on attending, but fear not, the announcement was made at the conference that planning has already begun for the next National Conference in 2024 on the sunny Gold Coast!

We Make Networking Easy!

Networking is an integral part of this event, and we strive to provide plenty of opportunities to mingle amongst our guests.

This year, the weather held out to allow us to congregate under the stars on the lawn beside the lake.

After a busy first day of presentations, we all came together for canapes, drinks and local live entertainment, which set the mood for a perfectly relaxed atmosphere.

Best Conference EVER!

I have been having lots of communications, follow-ups, and meetings since the event, which demonstrates to me that it was the meeting of the minds that needed to happen.

Everyone is brimming with information to share and need quality connections to drive their goals and initiatives.

What a brilliant, value-driven conference.

I have never attended a conference with so many open minds, hungry for change and curious about solutions.

Well done, Gary and the team at Industry Partners Australia, and thank you, from the team at I-care Reliability Australia, to all the members who attended and who shared their experiences and wisdom.

Last week I had the honour and pleasure of speaking at the Industry Partners Australia National Conference. This year's theme - Shaping The Future.
 
Held across two days in the Hunter Valley, this incredible event kicked off with an epic keynote by Gary Bertwistle on Leading Innovation - Empowering The Leadership Of Thought.
 
Then closed with a spectacular Keynote by Jason Clarke - 'When The Going Gets Weird, The Smart Get Creative, ' which had the (140+) crowd roaring with laughter.
 
The calibre of presentations was phenomenal.
