BEN CROSBY
ASTT President
It’s with great pleasure that I welcome industry to join us at the 2025 No-Dig Down Under conference and exhibition, following on from another hugely successful event in Brisbane in 2023.
As is customary, we continue the rotation between cities and the 2025 main event will be hosted at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre from the 17-18 September 2025, with shoulder events such as the ASTT Training Courses and Welcome Reception to be held on Tuesday 16 September 2025.
We continue to look at ways to innovate the event, add value and live up to our mission of growing the trenchless technology industry and will announce some exciting new features ahead of the 2025 instalment.
With a sold out exhibitions in 2022 and 2023, No-Dig Down Under 2025 will offer a larger exhibition footprint for the third consecutive year and is expected to once again sell out, while the social program, which saw unprecedented attendance growth is set to return and will feature a major networking event and the ASTT Gala Awards.
I encourage those in the industry to support the event and I look forward to again welcoming you to No-Dig Down Under in Melbourne in 2025.
