Here are just a few of the new initiatives that will make it not just the biggest CeMAT Australia ever, but also the best!

Industrial Transformation

On Day 3 – Thursday, 27 July – at CeMAT Australia 2023, the entire Knowledge Theatre program will be dedicated to Industrial Transformation, focusing on the latest in technology, thought leadership and best practice throughout the materials handling, intralogistics, supply chain management and logistics sectors.

Industrial Transformation represents a coordinated and proactive approach to leveraging digital technologies to create step-change improvement in industrial operations and is currently being driven by the advent of Industry 4.0, the ever-growing impact of AI and many other major shifts in the technology shaping the present and future of the sector.

From digital twins to AI and machine-learning, energy management and the road to carbon neutrality, Industry 4.0 in Australia represents a realm of possibilities for ambitious manufacturers in the present and going forward and is shaping the ever-advancing impacts of Industrial Transformation.

Workforce Hub

At the Workforce Hub, located throughout CeMAT Australia 2023, we will be promoting workforce and employment conversations and connections. Partnering with exhibitors and speakers to offer those looking to enter or grow within the industry the opportunity to interact with employers and thought leaders, this will be a chance for young professionals to kickstart their careers, and for businesses searching for new blood to connect with the talented future of the materials handling, intralogistics, supply chain management and logistics sectors.

There will also be social media competitions held in the lead up to, and throughout the event, with prizes that will be of major interest to those looking to take advantage of the new Workforce Hub.

Australian Forklift Championships

CeMAT Australia is teaming up with official sponsor Hyundai Forklifts Australia and media partner Forkliftaction to present the inaugural Australian Forklift Championships, where the best of the best in Aussie forklift drivers will compete in a national competition of materials handling excellence, demonstrating masterful driving, unflinching concentration, and game determination.

Held on the floor at CeMAT Australia 2023, the finalists will compete for amazing prizes and the honour of becoming the first ever Australian Forklift Champion, with the winner lifting the Bill Henman Trophy and garnering industry publicity. Whether you’re there to enjoy the excitement as a spectator or as a competitor, the Australian Forklift Championships are sure to be an exciting addition to CeMAT Australia this year.
