About the conference

The Centre for Efficiency and Productivity Analysis (CEPA) is hosting a three-day conference event. The conference theme will cover cutting edge research in productivity analysis as well as issues of economic regulation, modelling of land and housing, affordability and selected topics in health inequality and productivity.

The conference will see the participation of speakers from academia, government organisations, regulators and professional economists. The conference will cover both theoretical topics and topics that are relevant for policy making. It will aim at providing a networking opportunity for regulators, government agencies, academics and independent economists to meet and discuss these topics.

CEPA will be held in-person and registration (link to be available Mid September) is necessary to attend. The conference registration fee is AUD$150. The fee covers morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea for all days, plus the conference dinner.
