We are proud to introduce Maxton Fox, Zip and Dyson as partners in 2019. Each will be integral to the FRONT experience. Maxton Fox in collaboration with Polytec will bring their design and fabrication expertise to the event, helping you connect and make the most of your attendance through a custom-made concierge desk, hospitality stations and the FRONT main bar.

So, what can you expect? FRONT is a journey of discovery: there’ll be a unique set-up presentation pods, ensuring attendees walk past every exhibitor – so you can unlock the knowledge of every brand and every new product worth knowing about.
Positioned around the space will be designated meeting areas encouraging interaction and engagement, facilitated by all-day catering. And with custom-built technology that allows you to connect with other exhibitors and attendees pre-event, those conversations can start before you even step through the door.
FRONT Forum 2019 also presents topics and discussions unique to any other event, with two full days of keynotes by international and local thought leaders, debates and panel discussions focused on the future of commercial design and development in Australia and beyond.
Alongside the Forum are a host of CPD-endorsed sessions presented by FRONT’s disruptive and pioneering brands who will be sharing the latest insights in the commercial sector, this series offers more education, more talking points, sparking even more debate in an ever-changing industry.
