At 2024 DEi Conference
Event Materials
In our commitment to sustainability, we are delighted to announce the introduction of a digital app for the 2024 DEi Conference. This not only enhances convenience but also significantly reduces our reliance on printed materials. While we strive to keep printed materials to a minimum, in instances where they are unavoidable, we've opted for uncoated paper to minimise environmental impact. We encourage all attendees to return any printed materials that you do not wish to keep at the conclusion of the conference for recycling. Satchels and bags will not be provided at 2024 DEi Conference. Please bring along your own bag if you wish.
Name Badge and Lanyard
Upon the conclusion of the 2024 DEi Conference, kindly return your name badge and lanyard to the registration desk for recycling. Plastic name badge holders, crafted for durability, will be repurposed for future conferences, while paper name badges and lanyards will be responsibly recycled through TerraCycle. We sincerely appreciate your collaboration in lessening our environmental footprint.
Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre
The Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre is a centrally located venue within walking distance to public transport and major tourist destinations significantly eliminating the need for transfers and additional travel throughout the conference.
