A note from Richard, upcoming events, and member news

The Australia-UK Chamber Newsletter

Note from the CEO


How familiar are you with your fellow Chamber member organisations and people? 


Leveraging our members’ services, knowledge, connections, experience and capabilities - are all part of the benefits available to Chamber members.


Are there services or people within our member organisation you might be able to partner with, gain advice from or simply explore opportunities.


Our Chamber team - Vera, Nicole and I - not only host around 30 Chamber events during the year but we also attend activities hosted by our members.  These are always highly informative and provide the opportunity to extend our network. As the saying goes – ‘Meet good people. Do good business.’


In the last 6 weeks we have attended all sorts of Chamber connected events involving our members, including: -


  • Meat & Livestock Australia’s educational lunch event on meat exports into the UK, as well as first-class exhibition of meat preparation.

  • Onvero’s Equity Diversity & Inclusion event at the House of Lords

  • Informed Solutions’ London Tech Week Reception

  • Monash University Alumni Reception

  • Tourism Australia’s Summer Social

  • Queensland Trade & Investment art exhibition at the V&A

  • Law Squared Breakfast Discussion



Our team are doing what we encourage our members to do - ‘be in the room - create opportunities’.


Regards,

Richard Basil-Jones
