Attention fleet professionals! The 2025 IPWEA Fleet Conference is officially open for registrations, and this year’s event is shaping up to be our biggest and best yet. Running from March 24 to 26 at the Royal International Convention Centre at Brisbane Showgrounds, it’s an unmissable opportunity for those managing fleets, workshops, and planning the transition to electric vehicles.
What’s in Store for You?
This year’s conference is tailored to meet the needs of fleet buyers, workshop managers, and decision-makers steering fleets towards sustainability and electrification. The program focuses on two critical drivers of change:
- Reducing Emissions: Practical insights into cleaner operations, with strategies for introducing electric vehicles (EVs) and other low-emission technologies into your fleet.
- Emerging Technologies: Hands-on demonstrations and expert analysis of the latest in trucks, plant, and equipment, with a focus on transitioning fleets to meet future demands.
With a focus on collaboration, comparison, and creativity, this year’s conference is the perfect platform to explore actionable ideas and innovative solutions.
