Westkon Precast has joined the inaugural Data Centre Build Expo as a Platinum Sponsor.
Taking place on 15 and 16 September 2027 at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, alongside Converge Expo, the event will bring together professionals involved in planning, designing, constructing and commissioning data centres.
As part of its sponsorship, Westkon Precast will support The Hive, a dedicated exhibition feature connecting attendees with data centre operators to discuss upcoming projects and opportunities for collaboration. The company will also sponsor the event’s official lanyards.
Westkon Precast general manager Robert Corvetti said the company was eager to engage with the organisations shaping Australia’s digital infrastructure.
“As a company that has delivered complex precast solutions across major data centre developments, we see significant value in collaborating with developers, builders, engineers and technology providers who are driving the next generation of digital infrastructure,” he said.
“The rapid growth of Australia’s digital economy is creating unprecedented demand for data centre infrastructure. This presents significant opportunities to improve project delivery through innovative construction methodologies, greater prefabrication, enhanced safety outcomes and reduced construction timelines.”
Corvetti said the construction industry had an important role to play in meeting the technical and operational requirements of modern data centres.
“While data centres are often associated with technology, their success ultimately relies on the quality and resilience of the physical infrastructure that supports them,” he said.
“Dedicated events such as Data Centre Build Expo create an opportunity for the construction and infrastructure sectors to come together, share lessons learned, explore emerging technologies and address the unique challenges involved in delivering these highly specialised facilities.”
Westkon Precast plans to use the event to share its project experience, showcase advances in precast manufacturing and construction safety, and explore opportunities for industry collaboration.
Exhibition stands are now available, with further information on the Data Centre Build Expo website .
