Business Summit

After the worst global pandemic in a century, Australia and the world now confront an inflation outbreak, a global energy crisis, a synchronised increase in central bank interest rates, supply chain disruptions and unprecedented worker shortages that threaten to give way to an economic slowdown, perhaps even recession. While increased commodity export revenue has left it better placed than some to deal with the inflation outbreak, Australia also confronts an unsettled geo-political situation in .. continue reading its region and the major challenge – and opportunity – of decarbonising a fossil fuel-intensive economy. Considered the leading business event of its kind in Australia, the eighth annual Financial Review Business Summit brings together more than 40 globally-focused chief executives, political leaders, policymakers, entrepreneurs and technology experts from this country and abroad to tackle the big issues facing the global economy and Australian businesses. Curated, moderated and covered in depth by the Financial Review's leading journalists, the Summit will discuss how business and government should deal with stagflation and the energy shock amid the expected sharp growth slowdown. The Summit also will canvas the new federal Labor government's policy agenda to repair the budget, increase social spending and revive growth in living standards for all Australians.
