More to come in 2026

The back half of the year is shaping up to be a busy one. We've got a strong line-up of events in development across Australia, tackling the issues shaping construction law right now.

Topics on the agenda include the latest shifts in security of payment, how time and cost risk gets allocated in an age of shocks, the realities of cost-reimbursable contracts, and emerging trends in construction arbitration — brought to you alongside leading firms and practitioners around the country.

There's plenty on for younger practitioners too, with social events and mooting through our Young Construction Committee, and our 2026 mentoring program now open for applications.

And we'll be closing out the year with end-of-year functions in cities around the country.

Details for each event will be confirmed closer to the date — keep an eye on this page and our channels so you don't miss out.

We're also looking forward to the Stynes Address to be held in Sydney on 27 October — one of the highlights on our calendar. More details to be announced soon.

Watch this space for more information.
