We will look closely at how stricter thermal, fire safety, and structural compliance pathways open up new commercial and technical opportunities—allowing forward-thinking professionals to de-risk projects, reduce operational energy, and deliver superior asset value from the outset.Why Attend?Technical Authority: Gain practical insights into complex compliance pathways and thermal performance metrics.Cross-Discipline Clarity: Understand the knock-on effects of envelope variations on HVAC sizing and interfaces.Industry Networking: Connect with Tier-1 to Tier-3 developers, project managers, architects, and facade engineering leaders across Victoria.Join us for an insightful evening co-hosted by CIOB/ CIBSE / FSE as a panel discusses this valuable topic, followed by a Q&A opportunity as well as Industry networking.
