Boomtown! Property & Infrastructure Summit 2021

The Boomtown! Summit is a full-day conference promoting the transport, infrastructure and property projects that help to grow the cities of the West, as well as address urban transformation, cities policy and governance reform.

This annual event is where public and private sector leaders outline the policies and investments that will shape the future of the region. This event is designed to facilitate a dialogue between key decision-makers and stakeholder groups, and is delivered with the support of Transport for NSW, NSW Department of Planning, Industry & Environment and other Dialogue Partners.

Held at Sydney Olympic Park, Boomtown! ‘21 focused on an infrastructure-led recovery, and legacy, in a post-pandemic economy. It showcased Metro Rail and Faster Rail, plus Western Sydney Airport and the Aerotropolis, Med-Tech hubs at Westmead, Liverpool and Campbelltown, town centre renewal in the Central City, development issues affected by flooding, and precinct planning in the Western City.
