    The Australian economy has been more resilient than expected in the face of a material lift in interest rates. However signs are building of a slowdown including a loosening in the labour market and softening consumer spending. Inflation is also moderating and together it suggests interest rates have peaked and should start to come down in late 2024. This session will discuss the factors leading to the rate cuts and how large the cycle will be.

    Discover the challenges and solutions to develop a strong economy in the landscape of Western Sydney for 2024 and beyond. In a region teeming with opportunity and innovation, staying ahead of economic trends is key to success.

    Connect with like-minded professionals, industry leaders, and decision-makers, fostering collaborations that propel your business forward. Position your organisation for success in Western Sydney's evolving economy.

    This is your chance to connect and interact with influential business figures from across Western Sydney. Seats are limited, so secure yours now to ensure you're part of the conversation.
