Queensland Agent-General Ross Buchanan Visits ADMARES in Turku

ADMARES recently hosted Mr Ross Buchanan, Agent-General for Queensland, at our headquarters in Turku, Finland. As the Queensland Government’s senior representative in the UK and Europe, Mr Buchanan is responsible for advancing the state’s trade, investment, and broader economic interests.

During the visit, Mr Buchanan met with ADMARES management, engineers, and designers to review how ADMARES’ industrialised housing technology will be deployed in Australia. Discussions focused on how advanced manufacturing, automation, and digital twin driven production can support Queensland to increase the supply of high-quality homes at scale, in addition to the broader economic benefits of a domestic supply chain and creation of local employment opportunities.

Commenting on the visit, Mr Buchanan said:

“Queensland is actively looking for scalable solutions that can address housing demand while delivering broader economic benefits. The level of early market interest ADMARES has secured demonstrates strong confidence in this approach and highlights the opportunity to build a new, technology-led manufacturing ecosystem in Queensland.”

Representatives from ADMARES’ partners Porsche Consulting, MHP – A Porsche Company, and EDAG Group also joined the sessions to outline their roles in the Smart Factory programme and the wider industrial ecosystem supporting its delivery.The visit marked an important step in aligning technology, industry, and public sector objectives as the Smart Factory establishment in Queensland continues to progress.
