Sponsorship opportunities

We are thrilled to extend this exclusive invitation to you for the 36th Annual Queensland Mining Industry Health and Safety Conference (QMIHSC), scheduled to take place from 17–20 August 2025, at The Star, Gold Coast.

From dynamic keynote presentations to interactive workshops, each session is tailored to provide actionable insights and strategies that align with our commitment to safety excellence. Industry leaders and experts will address critical topics, including the role of simplicity in safety, lessons learned from past incidents, and strategies for building a culture of safety awareness.

In addition to the enriching content, we are excited to offer extended networking opportunities in our exhibition marquee, allowing you to engage with fellow industry leaders, forge new partnerships, and explore innovative solutions that drive sustainable growth and development. You’ll have valuable one-on-one interactions with keynote speakers and opportunities to discuss emerging trends, technologies, and solutions.

Moreover, we are honored to continue our tradition of supporting impactful initiatives within our community. This year, we are proud to announce that the proceeds from our appeal auction will go towards supporting CapRescue and their vital work.

As valued sponsors and exhibitors, your presence at QMIHSC is integral to the success of this premier event. We invite you to showcase your latest innovations, connect with industry peers, and seize countless opportunities to elevate your brand while contributing to our shared commitment to making safety not just a priority, but a way of life in Queensland’s Mining Industry.
