Frame Australia postponed to 2022

“We reluctantly decided that, for all concerned, it would make sense to hold the event in 2022,” said event founder Kevin Ezard.

“The pandemic situation has created too many uncertainties, and many other events have also been postponed.”

The 2022 event will be held on Tuesday 21 and Wednesday 22 June at Crown Promenade Melbourne.

For the past 23 years, a key feature of the event has been the opportunity to personally network and interact with colleagues in the industry. This requires ‘in-person’ participation in a safe environment.

“We are very excited by the program,” Mr Ezard said.

“Global growth in the industry has been remarkable, with construction projects of massive scale underway in many countries.

Projects in our program will include Asia’s largest mass wood building under construction in Singapore, and the world’s tallest 40-storey building currently underway in Sydney,” he said.

“This growth is also driving the development of new mass timber manufacturing plants to meet demand.”

With its ‘hybrid’ format, the conference is expected to attract broad participation, including ‘virtual’ delegates from around Australia and the rest of the world.
