The Victorian Government is inviting the tourism industry to help shape the future of Victoria’s visitor economy.

Victorian Chamber Chief Executive Paul Guerra talked about what we’ve learned from COVID-19 and the importance of business leading the state's recovery in his address to the Melbourne Press Club.

I’m sure you are all delighted with today’s State Government announcement on the further easing of COVID-19 restrictions. It’s exactly what Victorian business needs to really get moving with our post-pandemic recovery.

The Victorian Chamber and Business NSW have united to call for isolation requirements for household close contacts to be eased for Australia’s two largest economies.

It’s Grand Prix week in Victoria and the excitement and energy is palpable. It will be extra special in 2022 as we remember the dramatic circumstances under which it was cancelled in 2020 when the reality of COVID-19 hit us like a wrecking ball. How far we have come since then as Victorian business continues to embrace the opportunities that lie ahead.

Qantas CEO Alan Joyce AC says Australia can “move a bit faster” on relaxing rules around isolation for close contacts as the nation embarks on its economic recovery.

The Victorian Chamber welcomes the 2022-23 Federal Budget which will help support Victoria’s economic recovery.

The Victorian Chamber’s advocacy has helped secure significant wins in the Federal Budget with increased funding for skills and training, commitments for two Victorian freight terminals and a much-needed boost for regional tourism.

The Victorian Chamber welcomes today’s announcement of a landmark collaboration between State Governments to decarbonise logistics along the eastern seaboard.

The Victorian Chamber is pleased to launch our Federal Election Platform, which pitches three big ideas that will benefit Victorian businesses and jobs, secure the progress of our state, and drive economic development into the future.

It’s hard to describe what an incredible feeling it is to finally be able to move around our great state again and enjoy all Regional Victoria has to offer, whether it’s our beautiful towns, beaches, lakes, rivers, wineries, golf courses or restaurants.

The Victorian Chamber is here for your business. We work closely with our members, stakeholders and government officials to create a better business environment

The Chamber is working overtime to ensure business remains our number one priority. As we have done right through the pandemic, we are continuing to advocate strongly on behalf of our members with all levels of government in what will be a critical year with both federal and state elections.

Victorian businesses consistently tell us that sourcing and retaining staff is a challenge that impacts their performance. To help shape our advocacy, we want to know what barriers you face, where the pain points are in the employment market and identify which industries are struggling with specific roles.

The 2022-23 State Budget must enable business to play a leading role in Victoria’s economic recovery according to the Victorian Chamber.

Habits can be hard to break and I’m sure we all felt a bit uncertain last week as office workers started to return after the better part of two years working from home.
