Five hundred delegates and 40 exhibitors are expected to gather in Queensland from Wednesday 27 to Friday 29 February 2008 for the EcoForum Conference & Exhibition to be held at Conrad Jupiter's on the Gold Coast.

Organised by Quitz event management, the three-day industry function comprises:

• nine conference streams and four workshops within four themes of environmental management;
• 500 delegates interested in the themes of "˜Managing the macro environment', "˜Managing contaminated sites', "˜Managing water systems' and "˜Managing communications';
• a trade exhibition of 40 suppliers of air, land and water products and services;
• an art exhibition on Brownfield site rehabilitation;
• plenty of networking throughout the event, including a happy hour at the end of each day;
• the EcoForum dinner on Friday night.

EcoForum managing director Paul Howlett said EcoForum in 2008 is building on two previous EcoForum events: Contamination Cleanup 07 & Industry Summit and the EcoForum Exhibition held in partnership with the Cooperative Research Centre for Contamination Assessment and Remediation of the Environment (CRC CARE) in Adelaide during June 2007; and the "˜Climate change and resource security: building a platform for change' seminar held in partnership with PricewaterhouseCoopers in Sydney during September 2007.
