The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that business really can be done from almost anywhere. For many, it has put the dream of a tree change in reach.
Right now Australia has a 1 in 100 year moment for regional Australia to make its case to governments and urban Australians alike, and articulate a vision for what our regions could become with the right encouragement, policy and investment. And, establishing a regionalisation agenda is not just about forging a better lifestyle for Australians. If done right, it’s shot in the arm for an ailing national economy. Hear from the leaders of three of Australia’s most listened-to industry bodies, as they map out their collective plan for the bona fide successful development of our regions and what government, business and communities need to do to make it happen.
