Our third Annual Conference, held on 3 September, gathered 230 attendees—including the Victorian Minister for Planning—to explore how manufacturing expertise can address housing and building sector challenges. Since the last newsletter, we launched four new projects addressing tech’s impact on work, early-stage design coordination, 3D-printed housing comfort and MMC guidance. We’re now planning the final stretch of our CRC program, working with partners to shape research that delivers meaningful social, environmental and economic outcomes through 2024.
