We’re launching the 2026 Connecting Industry Luncheon series with a deep dive into one of Central Queensland’s most anticipated emerging resource portfolios. QMines Limited is accelerating three significant copper and gold assets - Mt Chalmers, Mount Mackenzie, and Develin Creek - and their progression is set to spark a wave of future procurement, contracting, and service opportunities for businesses across the region.On Wednesday, 18 February, the supply chain will have a rare opportunity to hear directly from Andrew Sparke, Founder and Executive Chairman of QMines Limited (ASX:QML). Andrew will unpack how these projects are moving toward development, the scale of the regional opportunity, and the practical steps local businesses can take now to prepare for the next phase of activity. With a background spanning ASX leadership, capital raising, and resource project advancement, Andrew brings unmatched context on where the industry is heading and how suppliers can position themselves early.
This luncheon marks the opening of our 2026 program - a chance to set the tone for the year, reconnect with industry peers, and gain insight into a multi-project pipeline that could shape Central Queensland’s economic landscape for years to come.
If your organisation works within Australia’s project supply chain, this is the room where relationships start, opportunities emerge, and momentum builds. Join us as we kick off 2026 with a forward-looking conversation that matters.
Thanks to our sponsors and partners: Mick Mannion Fabrications, Industry Capability Network, Jobs in Central Queensland, Vertical Horizonz Australia, Cater Care, Central Apartment Group, Gladstone Regional Council, and LinkedIn.
