AustCham Singapore had the pleasure of co-organising the Hunter Australia Investment Round Table with Newcastle Airport yesterday, bringing together senior leaders from the Hunter Region and our Singapore business community for a morning of insights, connections and investment opportunities.

The programme showcased Hunter’s strengths across advanced manufacturing and technology, defence and aerospace, freight and logistics, tourism and regional development, with perspectives from leaders across the City of Newcastle, Port Stephens and the broader Hunter region.

We also heard from Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) on the investment landscape, before a panel discussion which explored the opportunities for greater collaboration, investment and partnerships between the Hunter Region and Singapore.

Thank you to Linc Horton, Gavin Morris, Leah Anderson, Brett Thomas, Tim Owen, David Ng, Alice Thompson, Tim Browne and Marcus Dawe for sharing your insights, and to Bob Hawes for moderating the discussion.

Yesterday, AustCham Singapore was pleased to host a Ministerial Dialogue with Ms Indranee Rajah, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Office and Second Minister for Finance and National Development.

Moderated by AustCham Singapore Vice President Thomas FitzGerald, the discussion explored the forces shaping Singapore’s next phase of growth, including a more competitive and uncertain global environment, rapid technological change, and how businesses and people can adapt. Trust, reliability and efficiency remain central to Singapore’s resilience and its role as a regional hub.

With Singapore preparing to chair ASEAN in 2027, regional connectivity, practical cooperation and deeper economic links were also in focus. As Southeast Asia grows, Singapore plays a complementary role to the region, creating opportunities across various sectors including, professional services, advanced manufacturing, healthcare, financial services, and more.

Thank you to Minister Indranee for sharing your insights with us, and to our members for contributing to a thoughtful discussion. We had more questions than time allowed - a good sign of an engaging conversation.

This dialogue was made possible with the support of our Event Partner, Toll Group. Thank you for your partnership. We look forward to more opportunities to bring our community together.

Thank you to everyone who joined us last Thursday for AustCham Singapore's Breakfast Briefing with Her Excellency Robyn Mudie, Australian High Commissioner to Singapore.

In her keynote, High Commissioner Mudie reflected on the strength and maturity of the Australia-Singapore relationship - one built on trust, shared priorities and a clear commitment to practical collaboration. From economic resilience and essential supplies to the green economy, energy, innovation and regional connectivity, the relationship continues to create meaningful opportunities for business.

Our panel of senior Team Australia representatives from Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) and the Australian High Commission, Singapore explored what this means in practice for Australian businesses. Key themes included Singapore’s role as a regional launchpad, opportunities across AI, energy, infrastructure, data centres and defence, and the value of building long-term partnerships grounded in a clear understanding of local needs.

No matter the industry or area of focus, a key takeaway for our members and guests is that successful market engagement is not transactional. It takes regular connection, a strong value proposition, and collaboration across the Team Australia network.

Thank you to High Commissioner Mudie, our panellists Amelia Walsh, David Wise, Gaurav Johri and Katrina Lourie, and to all attendees for a lively and insightful discussion.

This event would not be possible without our Event Partners, ANZ and BlueScope. Thank you for your continued support of the Chamber.

A full recap article and photo gallery will be available on our website later this week.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us last Thursday at our first Excellence in Leadership Series event of 2026: In Conversation with Elizabeth Broderick AO. We've captured the key insights from the conversation in our latest Insights article. Read the full recap here 👉 https://www.austcham.org.sg/insights-series/conversation-elizabeth-broderick-ao-building-inclusive-leadership-why-future

As one of Australia's leading voices on gender equality, cultural reform and inclusive leadership, Elizabeth shared practical insights drawn from decades of working with leaders and organisations around the world, highlighting that inclusive leadership is not just about policies - it's about the everyday behaviours, accountability and courage that shape organisational culture.

The engaging session was expertly moderated by Emily Follett, Australian Deputy High Commissioner to Singapore, who also outlined some of the Australian government key initiatives to advance gender equality.

The key takeaways from the session:
✅ Inclusion starts with leadership and the behaviours leaders role model every day.
✅ Sustainable cultural change requires accountability, transparency and measurable action.
✅ Stories can be just as powerful as data in driving meaningful change.
✅ As AI transforms the workplace, leaders have an important role to play in ensuring innovation is inclusive and equitable.

Members in our community are actively driving change within the organisations. During the session last Thursday, we were proud to showcase the progress in DEI made by some of our members - Rio Tinto, QBE Asia, Mallesons, and Qantas. Thank you for contributing to this important conversation.

Finally, we would like to extend our gratitude to Elizabeth for sharing her experience and expertise, to Emily for moderating such a thoughtful discussion. This event would not be possible without our co-organiser, the Australian High Commission, Singapore, our Event Partner, MARUNDA Private Limited, and our Venue Partner, ANZ - thank you for your partnership and we look forward to more opportunities to collaborate.
