At a time of growing energy insecurity, rising costs and increasing pressure on existing systems, the opportunity is clear, but the pathway is not straightforward.

We'd like to invite you to a private lunch session that will bring together leaders from industry and government to explore how waste, wastewater, energy, transport and policy systems can better be connected to unlock greater value.

Frontier Economics & Sphere Infrastructure invite leaders to come together for a focused, solutions-oriented discussion on what is preventing progress, what it will take to move forward, and how a more connected approach can help us move beyond silos.

  • Are we taking too narrow a view of the role resource recovery infrastructure can play in Australia’s future?

  • Are current policy, planning, economic and financing settings making it harder than necessary to unlock investment and scale practical cross-sector solutions?

  • Is a lack of coordination across waste, wastewater, energy, transport and government systems limiting progress?

  • Where are the most credible and achievable opportunities to deliver integrated outcomes across sectors?
