Energy Exchange is a new forum bringing together communications leaders from across energy networks and the broader energy sector to connect, share insight and sharpen the way we engage with the communities we serve.  

This inaugural event will dive into the issues shaping our work right now.  Designed to be practical, candid and collaborative, Energy Exchange creates space for experienced practitioners to step back from the day-to-day, challenge thinking, and learn from peers facing the same complex communications environment.  

Registration Rates  

  • Members: $580  
  • Non-Members: $700 

After the forum, continue the conversation and build connections in a more relaxed setting over a shared dinner at The Meat & Wine Co Barangaroo. This optional networking dinner offers the chance to deepen discussions from the day, exchange perspectives with peers, and strengthen relationships across the energy communications community.

  •  Dinner Cost: $165 (Limited availability – bookings essential)
