The FACTory - Central Showcase

Industry Presented by VicScreen, The FACTory’s Central Showcase brings experienced project teams face-to-face with local and international decision makers in a live pitch format. Come and support the pitching teams and celebrate The FACTory's 10th anniversary at AIDC 2025.
