For 20 years, NCRIS has been powered by the people behind Australia’s national research infrastructure — the scientists, technologists, engineers, data specialists and facility teams who make research possible every day.

To mark the NCRIS 20th anniversary, the NCRIS community is invited to celebrate at locations across Australia for informal gatherings.

These events are a chance to connect with peers, celebrate what has been achieved together over the past two decades, and recognise the collaboration and shared effort that continue to drive NCRIS forward.

Together we will celebrate 20 years of impact — and the extraordinary people whose expertise powers Australia’s research infrastructure.

Format: In-person NCRIS community gatherings nationwide, registration required. At selected locations around the country, there will be an opportunity to view a livestream of the NCRIS@20 Symposium.
