Partnership Opportunities

On behalf of the Australian National Committee on Large Dams (ANCOLD) Executive and Local Organising Committee, I cordially invite you to the 2024 ANCOLD Conference due to be held in November in Adelaide, South Australia.

The conference will be held at the world class Adelaide Convention Centre, located in the centre of Adelaide overlooking the Torrens River Lake and opposite the Adelaide Oval.

The conference theme is “Never the same dam twice”. This draws our attention to dams being dynamic. They are constantly changing through loads, aging processes and environmental factors. Every time we step onto a dam something is different. The dams industry through all aspects of regulation, surveillance, dam safety management, design, risk and construction also needs to continuously adapt and improve to keep up with demands for more minerals, materials, water, energy and the impacts of climate change and at the same time ensuring people and society are protected from dam failure. The dams industry can’t rest – it has to continue to evolve, embrace the lessons from the past and be innovative, developing new technology, improving procurement, contracting, regulation and construction. Similar to 2023, there will be a full day workshop followed by three days of technical sessions providing opportunities to share your experiences and to learn from each other and industry specialists.

The conference will be supported by a fantastic social program and conference tours, ensuring it is the dam industries event of 2024.

We gratefully acknowledge and value the ongoing contribution of existing sponsors of ANCOLD, and we encourage new sponsors to take up the opportunities and brand exposure that this conference can offer your business.
