The Gold Coast Investment Showcase is kicking off tomorrow at the JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa, where 41 companies will be presenting.
To be held on 11–12 June 2026 and organised by RIU Conferences, the Gold Coast Investment Showcase aims to provide a platform for primarily early-stage explorers to engage with investors.
Speaking to Mining.com.au ahead of the two-day conference, RIU Conferences General Manager Jaxon Crabb shares that sentiment is improving for a bigger 2026 program.
“We’re looking forward to a crowd that will probably be much larger than the 2025 and 2024 shows,” Crabb says.
“The Gold Coast Investment Showcase differs itself from most conferences that exist around Australia because it’s diversified.
“We’ve got biotech, we’ve got tech, we’ve got resources, and we’ve got energy. All the sectors are covered by companies that are presenting or exhibiting on the stage.”
Commodities in play at the event are likely to include gold, copper, and battery metals, shaped by broader conversations surrounding energy security, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, and supply chains.
As reported by Mining.com.au, the Gold Coast Investment Showcase has received strengthened support from Southeast Queensland and New South Wales residents, along with several companies operating locally in Queensland presenting.
The event follows the announcement of Australia’s largest high-resolution regional airborne gravity gradiometry survey to be conducted across Northwest Queensland, covering 40,000km and launched by the state government, as reported.
The survey is a part of Queensland’s push for critical minerals, with geophysical data to be used to inform the geology beneath the surface for critical minerals identification.
Resource-focused companies attending include Lincoln Minerals (ASX:LML), Renegade Exploration (ASX:RNX), True North Copper (ASX:TNC), and Viking Mines (ASX:VKA).
