Thank you to everyone who joined us at the 2025 QLD Water Industry Operations Conference and Exhibition, held on 29–30 October in Bundaberg. It was an extraordinary event that brought together participants, volunteers, sponsors, and exhibitors in a true celebration of talent, innovation, and excellence across the water industry.
This year marked a return to the Bundaberg Multiplex Sports and Convention Centre for the first time since 2019, following two years on the Sunshine Coast. The exhibition welcomed 604 attendees, including 138 delegates, 176 visitors, and 290 exhibitors—an incredible turnout that highlighted the strength and connection of our community. We look forward to continuing this momentum at the Gold Coast in 2026.
The program featured insightful presentations from across Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria, showcasing the latest developments and initiatives in water operations. The Women in Water Operations (WiWO) Breakfast was another highlight, providing a valuable networking opportunity and advocating for inclusivity, mentoring, and collaboration to make water operations a visible and rewarding career path for all.
We extend our sincere gratitude to our sponsors, whose generous support made this event possible. Their commitment to the industry ensures the ongoing success of conferences like this.
Let’s keep the conversation flowing—connect with us on LinkedIn and continue to be part of the water operations community.
