Trucking Evolution: Are we heading to more prosperous times for your business?

Welcome to the 2025 RFNSW Conference & Awards. Our theme for this year is the Trucking Evolution. We're looking to the future, examining how we can take advantage of the more prosperous times to come. Trucking businesses have faced challenging times recently, but there are signs of hope and opportunity emerging across the economic, regulatory and political fronts. We'll explore key developments affecting the road freight sector, including the economic outlook for Q4, NSW freight reform, iCare premiums and the industry demand for more workers. Additionally, we'll cover topics like cybersecurity, fuel pricing and investment in the circular economy, all hosted by our MC for the day, Senator Glenn Sterle who will bring his trademark wit and experience to the role.

Highlighting the day is keynote speaker Professor Arnold Dix—renowned for his heroic rescue of 41 trapped miners in India—who will share an incredible message of resilience and hope. With insights from NSW politicians, industry leaders, and practical IR tips to boost business efficiency, the event promises to both inspire and provide actionable takeaways for your business.

Additionally, don't miss our annual award ceremony, where we'll recognise those in road freight for their outstanding achievements and contributions to our industry.

We're also offering the opportunity to join us for the official post-conference drinks, held upstairs at L'Aqua. This was a new addition to the program last year and provided a fantastic opportunity to continue conversation with fellow industry members in a more relaxed setting. Entry is free for early-bird tickets and includes canapes and premium drinks options.
