Victoria’s future prosperity rests in our ability to build on our natural advantages, create new sectors and evolve the way we do business in line with these emerging sectors. 

Business taxation must be urgently reformed. The Chamber is advocating to make the tax system more competitive to encourage business to hire workers, invest, expand and innovate. Business-friendly regulation is key to the attraction and retention of companies. 

The scale of Victoria’s infrastructure pipeline is unprecedented. Business growth depends on reliable planning, infrastructure, and investment. Ultimately the Victorian Chamber believes in the need to develop the next generation of Public Private Partnership models and to commercially test with industry.

Securing Victoria’s competitive position in rapidly emerging regional industries and supply chains is critical to achieving economic growth and prosperity. The Victorian Chamber supports Future Industry Deals as a mechanism to drive collaboration and joint investment and place-based development. 

Victoria’s prosperity depends on the talents of our people and their ability to reach their full potential. Ensuring Australians have the competencies and skills needed for the jobs of today and into the future rests on our capacity to create a world class education, training, and employment system.
