QMCA Networking Breakfast – Economic Outlook - 26 February 2026

QMCA Economic Outlook Networking Breakfast

As we look ahead to 2026, QMCA and Cbus Super will examine the forces shaping Queensland’s and Australia’s economic landscape.

What challenges, opportunities, and realities will define the year ahead? Global instability, rising energy and fuel costs, supply chain pressures, labour availability, and ongoing IR reform have created complex operating conditions for businesses and consumers throughout 2024–2025. But what trends can we expect in 2026? And, how will Australia’s economic performance influence Queensland’s construction and infrastructure sectors?

We are pleased to welcome the Queensland Treasurer, Hon David Janetzki MP, who will join us as a keynote speaker to provide insights into Queensland’s fiscal outlook, economic priorities, and the policy settings that will shape the year ahead. Cbus Super’s James Crawford and Alex Miller will also join us for breakfast to share their perspectives on the macroeconomic environment, market performance, and key investment challenges and opportunities expected over the short to medium term.
