As we approach the end of the year, we invite you to join our Chairman, Hon Simon Crean, AKBC board members and senior executives working in the Australia-Korea bilateral relationship for our end of year cocktail reception in Sydney. Celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Australia-Korea diplomatic relations, this cocktail reception offers an opportunity for you to network and establish, grow and mature relationships.
As we farewell 2021, we reflect on the successes and deepening of the ties between our two countries; Korea remains our third largest export market and fourth largest trading partner, and opportunities with the 10th largest economy in the world are increasing, particularly in critical minerals, hydrogen, food and agriculture, health and biotechnology, defence and education.
Please join us in celebrating our successes over what has been a challenging and unpredictable pandemic year, as we look ahead to the opportunities over the next 12 months.
The health and safety of our AKBC members is of the utmost importance to the AKBC, and so we urge our members to follow the NSW Government COVID-19 restrictions at the time of the event. In accordance with COVID-19 restrictions, we ask that our guests be double vaccinated, and to scan the QR Code and provide their COVID-19 digital certificates to the venue upon arrival.
Whether you are a representative from a member company or keen to become a member, we welcome you all and look forward to seeing you next week.
