Explore Councils by state
Gympie Regional Council in collaboration with the regional Chambers of Commerce are inviting members of the public to attend the Gympie Futures Business Breakfast.
The event will be held on Thursday 21 March from 6.45am to 9.30am at The Gympie Civic Centre, 32 Mellor Street, Gympie.
The event will focus on the future of the region, and in particular where the Gympie region economy is headed, and where focus should be directed to future proof the region for the next 10 years and beyond.
The event includes a variety of presenters including keynote speaker, Bernard Salt (OAM), who is one of Australia’s leading social commentators and business analysists.
Bernard is the Managing Director of the Demographics Group and a former partner in a global advisory firm. He writes two weekly columns for "The Australian" newspaper and is one of the most in-demand speakers on the corporate speaking circuit.
Bernard draws on a range of data sets to interpret social change, both now and into the future. He argues that social and cultural change are powerful forces that are reshaping the way we live, the way we work and even how we form relationships.
Gympie Regional Council Mayor Mick Curran, Gympie Regional Council Chief Executive Officer Bernard Smith, Director of Specialist Research Wayne Carlson, and Gympie Regional Council’s Manager of Gympie Futures, Lynne Banford will also be in attendance.
Mayor Mick Curran said he is looking forward to the forum as it will provide insights and information to help the region plan towards economic prosperity, aspects that Gympie Regional Council are looking at very closely.
“As a Council, we are focused on the future of the Region as well as looking more broadly at the region’s economic performance and productivity.”
Tickets are free for any current member of a Gympie Regional Chamber of Commerce or $20 per person including breakfast. Register online at www.gympiefuturesforum.eventbrite.com.au
