Now more than ever, it is crucial to focus our efforts on delivering and sustaining high-performing precincts – intricate ecosystems that provide centres for employment and trade, attractors for talent and investment, social hubs for entertainment and leisure, and vibrant places for communities to enjoy.

Given the profound impact of precincts on contemporary competitive advantage, urban landscapes, and overall quality of life, there has never been a better time to harness these opportunities. Both within Australia and across the globe, governments, developers, investors, and businesses are progressively embracing precinct models as a means of accelerating and optimising economic, social, and community value

What ingredients make for a high-performing precinct? And how do the decisions we make today in precinct planning shape the future for generations to come?  How do we encourage the right investment in the right places to drive both sustainable and high-performing precincts?

Join us, as we pose these questions to our special guests and audience, in a thought-provoking conversation that can shape how Brisbane looks, feels and functions.
