Introduction

 

Foreign posts, chambers and trade offices are the key reference points for investing in Australia.  We did a survey on how many of these people know the right contacts and information on Australian states, cities and key opportunities. Most of these people are not aware of the right information & contacts in these areas.

 

Australian Trade & Investment Partners Conference (ATIPC) 2011 is being held in Canberra on 22nd September 2011. This provides excellent opportunity to Economic development agencies, investment attraction teams, International trade members from various states, cities, federal & state departments, consultants, service providers and businesses to share information, opportunities & network with Australia’s foreign partners including commercial/trade offices, Embassies/High Commissions, foreign chambers, Service Providers, Consultants and many more.

 

Focus is to discuss major business, trade & investment opportunities in Australia with major country partners, how this could be improved, what better could be done to support the inward investments, what kind of support/investments these major countries are looking, networking & establishing the appropriate contacts with foreign offices & Economic development offices & investment attraction teams.

 

Delegates will have the opportunity to explore potential investments across Australia, incentives and support from different states, cities and many more to be initiated with mutual dialogue and imagination. Networking with the right contacts in different states, cities in Australia in Economic Development & investment attraction arena along with major foreign trade, commercial, investment teams, consultants & service providers.
