In 2025, we welcome back Forum25, the Grower Group Alliance’s flagship event designed to connect the GGA network with the wider industry.
Held every two years and open to the wider industry as well as GGA members, Forum builds vital cross-industry links and forges opportunities for GGA network groups to engage with industry to shape the future of agriculture.
Renowned for activating new, influential, and important working relationships, Forum provides high visibility for GGA groups to be recognised as an important and valued part of the WA Agriculture industry ecosystem.
Kicking off the event will be an entertainment-packed social welcome function on Thursday evening, followed by a dynamic conference day on Friday.
Delegates can expect valuable networking time, topical discussions and information exchange on matters we need to consider together as a WA agricultural community.
Early Bird Tickets
‘Early Bird’ tickets up to 20% off are available until 3rd July [4 weeks out].
