Building Industry Leaders Forum
The Building Industry Leaders Forum attracts senior management from across the supply chain and provides a non-competitive environment in which they can discuss industry issues and network with industry colleagues.

The inaugural Building Industry Leader Forum in 2008, provided an opportunity for senior building industry management to discuss the implications of the upcoming emissions trading schemes.


Challenges in the building industry continue to confront manufacturers, wholesalers and tradespeople. With a downturn in the economy, commercial building confidence at its lowest point, and the government injecting significant resource into infrastructure projects, this industry is confronting a number of opportunities and challenges.

Designed as an educational event, the Building Industry Leaders Forum attracts senior management from across the supply chain and provides a non-competitive environment in which they can discuss industry issues and network with industry colleagues.

2008 Forum Overview
The 2008 Building Industry Leaders was attended by over 70 building industry leaders at Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum.
