2026 Finance State of Play

What's changing in lending, tax, super and property, and what it means for you.

Big changes are reshaping the property and financial landscape right now, and if you're feeling unsure about what they mean for you, you're not alone. That's why we're bringing together four local finance experts for an evening of honest conversation and real answers, cutting through the noise on lending, super and property so you leave with the clarity and confidence to make informed decisions about your future.

Here in Brisbane's north, we're surrounded by business owners, property investors and entrepreneurs feeling the impact of these changes first hand. Come for the clarity. Stay for the connection, with fellow business owners and investors asking the same questions you are.

Seats are limited, so register early and bring a friend along at no extra cost.
