THE ONLY EVENT ON THE EAST COAST DEDICATED TO ROBOTICS & AUTOMATION FOR THE MINING SECTOR

Robotics and Automation in Mining Queensland is your best opportunity to meet and network with and learn from Australia’s most innovative and exciting technology leaders, applying their ideas and skills to improving the mining industries productivity, profitability and safety.

As COVID restrictions ease, and borders start to open up, mining and technology executives are keen to recommence meeting, starting/continuing dialogues and re-establishing important contacts – this conference is the perfect opportunity.

Those who cannot attend in person at the University of Queensland can still participate – whether you are in Perth or Denver, Melbourne or Santiago, you can still view the presentations and video network virtually with other attendees.

WHY IS ROBOTICS & AUTOMATION IN MINING A MUST-ATTEND EVENT?

  • This event is one-of-a-kind as it is a targeted forum aimed at Senior Management, General Managers, Directors and Managers involved in Automation, Robotics, Innovation, Digital Transformation, Technology, Strategy, Planning, Technical Capability, Data and Operations
  • Learn from the best minds, through case studies presented by industry pioneers driving innovation
  • Connect and collaborate with players right across the mining ecosystem – from operators, the METS sector, academia, research bodies, start-ups and more. Learn how each can add value to one another, deliver real impact and drive change
  • Gain extensive knowledge on topics including: the implementation of robotics and automation in mining, as well as tackle issues related to your operating model, legislation and regulation, decision automation, future workforce challenges and more!
  • Learn about transformational technologies proving to be business game changers
  • Hear insightful presentations, panels, and deep dive discussions with industry experts – walk away with new ideas and solutions tackling critical challenges
  • Engage in meaningful networking with key decision makers in a relaxed and interactive environment – it truly is a place where people come to ‘get business done’

Building on the success of Robotics & Automation in Mining Western Australia (February 26-27, 2020 in Perth) – Mining Innovation Network is delighted to announce the next event later this year, in Brisbane.

Robotics and Automation in Mining QLD is where the key players will gather to discuss the pressing issues and challenges facing robotics and automation and to hear from industry leaders on their latest applications, particularly in underground mining. The event will enable stakeholders to undertake a significant digital review of their business and identify areas in which automation and robotics will add most value.

Business as usual is no longer acceptable in the mining industry, and to stay afloat traditional businesses need radical changes. The value derived from the application of digital technologies and digitisation are so profound, and early adopters are already seeing the benefits of using automation.

Technology has rapidly advanced to enable a 'connected mine’ however this requires a change of industry culture and mindset, a step away from the siloed technology discovery model, deeper operational expertise aligned with technological capabilities, and ultimately reimagined business models.

Automation is estimated to deliver $52 billion in value to the mining sector in 2030, lifting total value added by 58% (AlphaBeta Advisors, 2019)
