At Chamber, connecting, informing, and advocating are the principles that guide everything we do to nurture growth, innovation, and collaboration within our business community. The recent Raising Regions Conference and Business Awards were a perfect showcase of these pillars in action, highlighting the incredible potential that exists within our region.
Connecting Businesses
Connecting businesses is more than just networking—it’s about building a strong, supportive community where ideas are exchanged, partnerships are formed, and collaboration thrives. We were thrilled to have over 120 business leaders, academics, entrepreneurs, and experts from across Queensland join us at the Raising Regions Conference. Their participation turned the event into a vibrant platform for forging and strengthening connections that will continue to benefit our region long after the conference has ended.
Informing and Empowering
By sharing knowledge, resources, and expertise, we empower businesses to stay ahead of the curve and navigate the ever-changing landscape of regional business. We are deeply grateful to the diverse range of almost 30 speakers who generously shared their insights during the conference. Their presentations covered the industry updates, latest innovations, best practices, and emerging opportunities, offering attendees valuable information to help them overcome challenges and seize new opportunities. The wealth of knowledge exchanged at the conference will undoubtedly have a lasting impact on the businesses that participated.
Advocating for Business
We champion the interests of our members and ensure their voices are heard, to create an environment where businesses can thrive and succeed. Much of our advocacy work involves engaging with politicians at all levels of government, but the Business Awards were a celebration of advocacy in a different form—advocating for business excellence was fun, uplifting, and deeply inspiring.
The Raising Regions Conference and Business Awards were more than just events; they embodied the Chamber’s commitment to connecting, informing, and advocating for our business community. These events would not have been possible without the support and collaboration of the many organisations and individuals who contributed their time, expertise, and enthusiasm. Together, we are building a prosperous future for businesses in our region, and we are grateful for the unity and dedication of everyone involved.
