2025 Conference

Invitation to Attend

Dear Colleagues,  

We are delighted to invite you to attend the 2025 eResearch Australasia Conference which will be held from 20 – 24 October, at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, Brisbane, QLD, Australia.   

Hosted by Australasian eResearch Organisations (AeRO) Inc., the conference is the premiere event for those interested in eResearch and actively transforming research via information technology.  

The conference provides an exciting opportunity for delegates to engage, connect and share their ideas and exemplars concerning new information-centric research capabilities, and how ICT technologies can help researchers to collaborate, collect, manage, share, process, analyse, find, understand, and reuse information. 

By attending the conference, you will learn from national and international experts, network with like-minded professionals, and meet with industry suppliers. 

Pre- and post-conference workshops will be held on Monday and Friday, with the main program running from Tuesday to Thursday. 

So save 20 – 24 October in your calendar now and we look forward to seeing you at the conference.

Natasha Simons, Luc Betbeder-Matibet
