Research
Landcom invests in and commissions a broad range of research focused on supporting the property and development industry become more sustainable.
We form partnerships with others from industry, universities and government to fund and deliver solutions to challenges. This involves piloting solutions in both Landcom projects and where feasible, in our partner’s projects, monitoring outcomes and sharing the findings with research partners, government and industry more broadly to drive meaningful change.
