Where future careers meet real industry

The Byrnecut Student and New Professionals Program connects emerging talent with the people, ideas and technologies shaping the future of the resources sector. 

Designed to sit alongside the main conference experience, the program creates structured opportunities for students and early-career professionals to build confidence, expand networks and gain practical insight into careers across mining and METS. 

This is not a separate event running in parallel to GRX. It is a curated pathway into the heart of the industry. 

Across the week, participants will engage with professionals, innovators and organisations who are actively shaping the future of resources, gaining exposure to real-world challenges, new technologies and career pathways. 

It creates space for emerging professionals to:

  • Understand how the sector is changing
  • Build meaningful connections with industry
  • Develop professional confidence
  • Explore diverse career pathways
  • See where their skills fit within the future of resources
