From Queensland to Switzerland: Unlocking Bilateral Business Opportunities

In collaboration with Trade and Investment Queensland and Switzerland Global Enterprise, AusCham had the pleasure of welcoming Mr Ross Buchanan, Queensland’s Agent-General for the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland and Senior Trade and Investment Commissioner – Europe, as our special guest.

Queensland contributes nearly 20% of the nation’s GDP and continues to grow as a hub for natural resources, digital technologies, infrastructure, defence, and aerospace. With the momentum building towards the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the state’s transformation offers exceptional opportunities for international investment and collaboration.

A big thank you to our speakers:
🇦🇺 Australian Ambassador to Switzerland & Liechtenstein, H.E. Elizabeth Day
🇨🇭 Daniel Bont, Senior Consultant China/Oceania, Switzerland Global Enterprise
🇨🇭 Christophe Balg, General Manager Asia-Pacific & Africa, Geobrugg
🇦🇺 Vicki Tanner, President, Australian Swiss Chamber of Commerce
…and of course, Ross Buchanan, for sharing his insights on the exciting future of Queensland–Europe trade and investment.

We’re grateful to all who joined us to make this such a valuable and engaging discussion, to Switzerland Global Enterprise for hosting and to Stefan Augustin and Henriette Pook for all their efforts behind the scenes.
