As Victoria approaches the 2026 State Election, join business leaders, employers and key decision makers for a flagship forum exploring what the election means for Victoria’s business community. 

The Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Committee for Melbourne invite you to an exclusive leaders’ forum focused on the policies and decisions that will shape our state’s economic success.

Featuring Victorian Premier Ben Carroll MP and Leader of the Opposition Jess Wilson MP, and moderated by State Political Reporter Heidi Murphy, this forum will provide a unique opportunity for Victoria’s business community to hear directly from both major parties on their vision for the state’s future, prosperity, competitiveness and growth. 

Through substantive discussion and moderated questioning, attendees will gain valuable insights into the policy approaches that could influence business confidence, investment, workforce development and economic opportunity across Victoria.

Anchored in the Victorian Chamber’s election platform priorities of Energy, Tax and Regulation, Global Industries, and Education and Skills, the forum will place business competitiveness and economic performance at the centre of the election conversation.

Bringing together senior business leaders, employers, industry representatives and key stakeholders, this event offers a critical opportunity to compare the competing economic agendas of the state’s two alternative governments and understand the implications for Victoria’s business community.
