CACC CALGARY Indigenous Trade Boardroom Briefing

We are thrilled to announce a historic milestone: Australia’s inaugural Indigenous Trade Delegation to Canada, taking place in 2026!

In partnership with Forward Summit, the Canadian-Australian Chamber of Commerce (CACC) is proud to champion this initiative, which will bring Australian Indigenous exporters to Alberta—via Vancouver—for an unprecedented opportunity to forge meaningful cross-Pacific partnerships.

To lay the groundwork for this landmark visit, the CACC is hosting a private Indigenous Trade Boardroom Briefing in Calgary. This business gathering will bring together business leaders, government representatives, and community champions to explore how Canada and Australia can collaborate to ensure the delegation’s success and long-term sustainability.

In today’s rapidly evolving geo-political and economic landscape, knowledge sharing, capacity building, and strategic alliances are more important than ever. By joining the conversation, participants will help create a lasting legacy of Indigenous trade and innovation that will benefit both nations for years to come.

THIS IS A PRIVATE MEETING; BY INVITATION ONLY.
