Closing Keynote: Australia’s Next Decade: Competitiveness, Capital and Execution
Every decade determines the next. In a faster-moving and more contested global economy, countries that move quickly on investment, infrastructure and policy will set the pace for the decade ahead.

However, the economic environment has shifted meaningfully in recent years. Geoeconomic competition is reshaping supply chains and investment decisions, and energy cost, reliability and emissions profiles increasingly influence where industry locates.
AI and data infrastructure are emerging as foundational capabilities for national economies.
Leave GRX26 with clarity on Australia’s biggest challenge and the opportunity for our sector.
