prefabAUS Focus Forums aim to:
- Share genuine knowledge and data
- Challenge the status quo and provide space for debate
- Encourage collaboration
- Inform prefabAUS advocacy to government, regulators and industry bodies
The formalities (presentations and panel sessions) are generally kept to the hour as the networking opportunity is given equal weight.
