We were excited to meet and talanoa with Queensland’s Trade and Investment Commissioner – Pacific, Leata Alaimoana-Roberts, along with Senior Business Development Manager and long-time supporter of WPBN, Joe Fuavao. The team discussed the exciting opportunities for businesses to connect with prospects in Australia and the Pacific Islands. It was also great to have Courtney Karalus from Deep Dive Division take part in the talanoa. We learned that the possibilities are vast, especially in infrastructure and renewable energy sectors, as well as trade and investment opportunities for businesses looking to establish their presence in Queensland, particularly in connection with the 2032 Olympics being held in Brisbane.
